Continuity of the time constant in a continuous model of first passage percolation
Abstract
For a given dimension d 2 and a finite measure on (0, +), we consider a Poisson point process on R d x (0, +) with intensity measure dc where dc denotes the Lebesgue measure on R d. We consider the Boolean model = (c,r) B(c, r) where B(c, r) denotes the open ball centered at c with radius r. For every x, y R d we define T (x, y) as the minimum time needed to travel from x to y by a traveler that walks at speed 1 outside and at infinite speed inside . By a standard application of Kingman sub-additive theorem, one easily shows that T (0, x) behaves like x when x goes to infinity, where is a constant named the time constant in classical first passage percolation. In this paper we investigate the regularity of as a function of the measure associated with the underlying Boolean model.
