Consider a Boolean model $\Sigma$ in $\R^d$. The centers are given by a homogeneous Poisson point process with intensity $\lambda$ and the radii of distinct balls are i.i.d.\ with common distribution $\nu$. The critical covered volume is…
These lectures give an introduction to the methods of conformal field theory as applied to deriving certain results in two-dimensional critical percolation: namely the probability that there exists at least one cluster connecting two…
The self-similar cluster fluctuations of directed bond percolation at the percolation threshold are studied using techniques borrowed from inter\-mit\-ten\-cy-related analysis in multi-particle production. Numerical simulations based on the…
We introduce spatially explicit stochastic processes to model multispecies host-symbiont interactions. The host environment is static, modeled by the infinite percolation cluster of site percolation. Symbionts evolve on the infinite cluster…
We study invasion percolation on Aldous' Poisson-weighted infinite tree, and derive two distinct Markovian representations of the resulting process. One of these is the $\sigma\to\infty$ limit of a representation discovered by Angel et al.…
We consider oriented percolation on Z^d times Z_+ whose bond-occupation probability is pD(...), where p is the percolation parameter and D is a probability distribution on Z^d. Suppose that D(x) decays as |x|^{-d-\alpha} for some \alpha>0.…
Clusters and droplets of positive spins in the two-dimensional Ising model percolate at the Curie temperature in absence of external field. The percolative exponents coincide with the magnetic ones for droplets but not for clusters. We use…
We prove existence of the scaling limit of the invasion percolation cluster (IPC) on a regular tree. The limit is a random real tree with a single end. The contour and height functions of the limit are described as certain diffusive…
We study the critical case of first-passage percolation in two dimensions. Letting $(t_e)$ be i.i.d. nonnegative weights assigned to the edges of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with $\mathbb{P}(t_e=0)=1/2$, consider the induced pseudometric (passage time)…
While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…
We study the percolation model on Boltzmann triangulations using a generating function approach. More precisely, we consider a Boltzmann model on the set of finite planar triangulations, together with a percolation configuration (either…
A new cluster algorithm based on invasion percolation is described. The algorithm samples the critical point of a spin system without a priori knowledge of the critical temperature and provides an efficient way to determine the critical…
Two related issues are explored for bond percolation on the d-dimensional cubic lattice (with d > 2) and its dual plaquette process. Firstly, for what values of the parameter p does the complement of the infinite open cluster possess an…
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 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 study the asymptotic behavior the exit times of random walk from Euclidean balls around the origin of the incipient infinite cluster in a manner inspired by [26]. We do this by obtaining bounds on the effective resistance between the…
The dynamical properties of the invasion percolation on the square lattice are investigated with emphasis on the geometrical properties on the growing cluster of infected sites. The exterior frontier of this cluster forms a critical loop…
We consider long-range percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, where the probability that two vertices at distance $r$ are connected by an edge is given by $p(r)=1-\exp[-\lambda(r)]\in(0,1)$ and the presence or absence of different edges are…
Percolation theory is usually applied to lattices with a uniform probability p that a site is occupied or that a bond is closed. The more general case, where p is a function of the position x, has received less attention. Previous studies…
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…
