The concept of midpoint percolation has recently been applied to characterize the double percolation transitions in negatively curved structures. Regular $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattices are in the present work investigated using the…
The percolation threshold for flow or conduction through voids surrounding randomly placed spheres is rigorously calculated. With large scale Monte Carlo simulations, we give a rigorous continuum treatment to the geometry of the…
For $d\ge 3$ we construct a new coupling of the trace left by a random walk on a large $d$-dimensional discrete torus with the random interlacements on $\mathbb Z^d$. This coupling has the advantage of working up to macroscopic subsets of…
We consider percolation of the vacant set of random interlacements at intensity $u$ in dimensions three and higher, and derive lower bounds on the truncated two-point function for all values of $u>0$. These bounds are sharp up to principal…
We correct and streamline the proof of the fact that, at the critical point $\alpha=1$, the vacant set of the two-dimensional random interlacements is infinite (Comets, Popov, 2017). Also, we prove a zero-one law for a natural class of tail…
Consider an independent site percolation model with parameter $p \in (0,1)$ on $\Z^d,\ d\geq 2$ where there are only nearest neighbor bonds and long range bonds of length $k$ parallel to each coordinate axis. We show that the percolation…
Consider the random set composed of particles initially distributed on Zd, d >= 2, according to a Poisson point process of intensity u > 0 and moving as independent simple symmetric random walks, the trap particles. We are interested in the…
In this article, we consider the interlacement set $\mathcal{I}^u$ at level $u>0$ on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d \geq3$, and its finite range version $\mathcal{I}^{u,L}$ for $L >0$, given by the union of the ranges of a Poisson cloud of random walks…
In r-neighbour bootstrap percolation on a graph G, a set of initially infected vertices A \subset V(G) is chosen independently at random, with density p, and new vertices are subsequently infected if they have at least r infected…
The existence (or not) of infinite clusters is explored for two stochastic models of intersecting line segments in $d \ge 2$ dimensions. Salient features of the phase diagram are established in each case. The models are based on site…
We investigate the relation between the local picture left by the trajectory of a simple random walk on the torus (Z/NZ)^d, d >= 3, until u N^d time steps, u > 0, and the model of random interlacements recently introduced by Sznitman. In…
We prove the existence of non-trivial phase transitions for the intersection of two independent random interlacements and the complement of the intersection. Some asymptotic results about the phase curves are also obtained. Moreover, we…
We study the independent alignment percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ introduced by Beaton, Grimmett and Holmes [arXiv:1908.07203]. It is a model for random intersecting line segments defined as follows. First the sites of $\mathbb{Z}^d$…
We study the complementary set of a Poissonian ensemble of infinite cylinders in R^3, for which an intensity parameter u > 0 controls the amount of cylinders to be removed from the ambient space. We establish a non-trivial phase transition,…
This work continues the investigation, initiated in a recent work by Benjamini and Sznitman, of percolative properties of the set of points not visited by a random walk on the discrete torus (Z/NZ)^d up to time uN^d in high dimension d. If…
We study intersection properties of two or more independent tree-like random graphs. Our setting encompasses critical, possibly long range, Bernoulli percolation clusters, incipient infinite clusters, as well as critical branching random…
In this note we discuss vacant set level set percolation on a transient weighted graph. It interpolates between the percolation of the vacant set of random interlacements and the level set percolation of the Gaussian free field. We employ…
We consider first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. weights, whose distribution function satisfies $F(0) = p_c = 1/2$. This is sometimes known as the "critical case" because large clusters of zero-weight edges force passage…
We consider self-avoiding walk and percolation in $\Zd$, oriented percolation in $\Zd\times\Zp$, and the contact process in $\Zd$, with $p D(\cdot)$ being the coupling function whose range is denoted by $L<\infty$. For percolation, for…
We consider random interlacements on Z^d, with d bigger or equal to 3, when their vacant set is in a strongly percolative regime. We derive an asymptotic upper bound on the probability that the random interlacements disconnect a box of…
