Random walks and exclusion processes among random conductances on random infinite clusters: homogenization and hydrodynamic limit
Abstract
We consider a stationary and ergodic random field {\omega(b)} parameterized by the family of bonds b in Z^d, d>1. The random variable \omega(b) is thought of as the conductance of bond b and it ranges in a finite interval [0,c_0]. Assuming that the set of bonds with positive conductance has a unique infinite cluster C, we prove homogenization results for the random walk among random conductances on C. As a byproduct, applying the general criterion of \cite{F} leading to the hydrodynamic limit of exclusion processes with bond-dependent transition rates, for almost all realizations of the environment we prove the hydrodynamic limit of simple exclusion processes among random conductances on C. The hydrodynamic equation is given by a heat equation whose diffusion matrix does not depend on the environment. We do not require any ellipticity condition. As special case, C can be the infinite cluster of supercritical Bernoulli bond percolation.
