Paths with exponential intersection tails and oriented percolation

Probability 2016-09-07 v1

Abstract

We show that oriented percolation occurs whenever a condition is satisfied called "exponential intersection tails". This condition says that a measure on paths exists for which the probability of two independent paths intersecting in more than k sites is exponentially small in k.
