Take a directed graph with vertices v0​,v1​,… and n+1 parallel bonds from vn​ to vn+1​. This is a locally finite graph, although the incoming degrees are unbounded. For bond percolation, θb​(p)=∏n≥0​(1−(1−p)n+1)>0 whenever p>0: the failure probabilities are summable, so the infinite product is positive. For site percolation, survival requires every vertex of the ray to be open, which has probability zero for p<1. Thus the survival and susceptibility thresholds for directed percolation satisfy pHb​=0 and pHs​=1.
