Heterochromatic two-arm probabilities for metric graph Gaussian free fields

Probability 2026-03-20 v3

Abstract

For the Gaussian free field on the metric graph of Zd\mathbb{Z}^d (d3d\ge 3), we consider the heterochromatic two-arm probability, i.e., the probability that two points vv and vv' are contained in distinct clusters of opposite signs with diameters at least NN. For all d3d\ge 3 except the critical dimension dc=6d_c=6, we prove that this probability is asymptotically proportional to N[(d2+1)4]N^{-[(\frac{d}{2}+1)\land 4]}. Furthermore, we prove that conditioned on this two-arm event, the volume growth of each involved cluster is comparable to that of a typical (unconditioned) cluster; precisely, each cluster has a volume of order M(d2+1)4M^{(\frac{d}{2}+1)\land 4} within a box of size MM.
