Abstract: In this paper we study bond percolation on a one-dimensional chain with power-law bond probability C/r(d+sigma), where r is the distance length between distinct sites and d = 1. We introduce and test an order-N Monte Carlo algorithm and we determine as a function of sigma the critical value C-c at which percolation occurs. The critical exponents in the range 0 < sigma < 1 are reported. Our analysis is in agreement, up to a numerical precision approximate to 10(-3), with the mean-field result for the anomalous dimension eta = 2 -sigma, showing that there is no correction to eta due to correlation effects. The obtained values for C-c are compared with a known exact bound, while the critical exponent. is compared with results from mean-field theory, from an expansion around the point sigma = 1 and from the e-expansion used with the introduction of a suitably defined effective dimension deff relating the long-range model with a short-range one in dimension d(eff). We finally present a formulation of our algorithm for bond percolation on general graphs, with order N efficiency on a large class of graphs including short-range percolation and translationally invariant long-range models in any spatial dimension d with sigma > 0.
