On the Continuity of Enhancement Percolation

Probability 2025-10-01 v2

Abstract

We study bond percolation in Zd\mathbb{Z}^d with an unbounded family of enhancements that enable additional bonds to act as open. A natural question is whether percolation occurs in this model if and only if percolation also occurs in the system with a finite subcollection of enhancements. We give an affirmative answer in dimension d=2d=2 for symmetric families of connected enhancements, and in dimensions d3d\ge 3 we prove a partial result.
