contents The weighted planar stochastic (WPS) lattice introduces a topological disorder that emerges from a multifractal structure. Its dual network has a power-law degree distribution and is embedded in a two-dimensional space, forming a planar network. We modify the original recipe to construct WPS networks with degree distributions interpolating smoothly between the original power-law tail, $P(q)\sim q^{-α}$ with exponent $α\approx 5.6$, and a square lattice. We analyze the role of disorder in the modified WPS model, considering the critical behavior of the contact process. We report a critical scaling depending on the network degree distribution. The scaling exponents differ from the standard mean-field behavior reported for CP on infinite-dimensional (random) graphs with power-law degree distribution. Furthermore, the disorder present in the WPS lattice model is in agreement with the Luck-Harris criterion for the relevance of disorder in critical dynamics. However, despite the same wandering exponent $ω=1/2$, the disorder effects observed for the WPS lattice are weaker than those found for uncorrelated disorder.

The weighted planar stochastic (WPS) lattice introduces a topological disorder that emerges from a multifractal structure. Its dual network has a power-law degree distribution and is embedded in a two-dimensional space, forming a planar network.
