Equality of bond percolation critical exponents for pairs of dual lattices

For a certain class of two-dimensional lattices, lattice-dual pairs are shown to have the same bond percolation critical exponents. A computational proof is given for the martini lattice and its dual to illustrate the method. The result is generalized to a class of lattices that allows the equality of bond percolation critical exponents for lattice-dual pairs to be concluded without performing the computations. The proof uses the substitution method, which involves stochastic ordering of probability measures on partially ordered sets. As a consequence, there is an infinite collection of infinite sets of two-dimensional lattices, such that all lattices in a set have the same critical exponents.
