Abstract

Consider percolation on T×ZdT\times \mathbb{Z}^d, the product of a regular tree of degree k3k\geq 3 with the hypercubic lattice Zd\mathbb{Z}^d. It is known that this graph has 0<pc<pu<10<p_c<p_u<1, so that there are non-trivial regimes in which percolation has 00, \infty, and 11 infinite clusters a.s., and it was proven by Schonmann (1999) that there are infinitely many infinite clusters a.s. at the uniqueness threshold p=pup=p_u. We strengthen this result by showing that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of accumulation points of each infinite cluster in the boundary of the tree has a jump discontinuity from at most 1/21/2 to 11 at the uniqueness threshold pup_u. We also prove that various other critical thresholds including the L2L^2 boundedness threshold p22p_{2\to 2} coincide with pup_u for such products, which are the first nonamenable examples proven to have this property. All our results apply more generally to products of trees with arbitrary infinite amenable Cayley graphs and to the lamplighter on the tree.
