Abstract:
Based on the balance equation, we consider the diffusion problem
on a hyperlattice with randomly distributed inaccessible sites. Using diagram
methods, we find a self-consistent expression for the configurationally
averaged Green's function in the coherent potential approximation. We show
that this approach is applicable in a broad range of concentrations of
accessible sites. Using this approximation, we find the exact asymptotic form
of the static diffusion coefficient for a low concentration of blocked sites.
This allows making good estimates of the percolation threshold in the random-site
diffusion problem on an arbitrary hyperlattice.
