Bounds of percolation thresholds in the enhanced binary tree

By studying its subgraphs, it is argued that the lower critical percolation threshold of the enhanced binary tree (EBT) is bounded as pc1<0.355059, while the upper threshold is bounded both from above and below by 1/2 according to renormalization-group arguments. We also review a correlation analysis in an earlier work, which claimed a significantly higher estimate of pc2 than 1/2, to show that this analysis in fact gives a consistent result with this bound. Our result confirms that the duality relation between critical thresholds does not hold exactly for the EBT and its dual, possibly due to the lack of transitivity.
