dc.descriptionLet $p_c(\mathbb{Q}_n)$ and $p_c(\mathbb{Z}^n)$ denote the critical values for nearest-neighbour bond percolation on the $n$-cube $\mathbb{Q}_n = \{0,1\}^n$ and on $\Z^n$, respectively. Let $Ω= n$ for $\mathbb{G} = \mathbb{Q}_n$ and $Ω= 2n$ for $\mathbb{G} = \mathbb{Z}^n$ denote the degree of $\mathbb{G}$. We use the lace expansion to prove that for both $\mathbb{G} = \mathbb{Q}_n$ and $\mathbb{G} = \mathbb{Z}^n$, $p_c(\mathbb{G}) & = \cn^{-1} + \cn^{-2} + {7/2} \cn^{-3} + O(\cn^{-4}).$ This extends by two terms the result $p_c(\mathbb{Q}_n) = \cn^{-1} + O(\cn^{-2})$ of Borgs, Chayes, van der Hofstad, Slade and Spencer, and provides a simplified proof of a previous result of Hara and Slade for $\mathbb{Z}^n$.
