We study first passage percolation (FPP) with stationary edge weights on Cayley graphs of finitely generated virtually nilpotent groups. Previous works of Benjamini-Tessera and Cantrell-Furman show that scaling limits of such FPP are given…

We study a natural growth process with competition, modeled by two first passage percolation processes, $FPP_1$ and $FPP_\lambda$, spreading on a graph. $FPP_1$ starts at the origin and spreads at rate $1$, whereas $FPP_\lambda$ starts from…

In first-passage percolation (FPP), we let $(\tau_v)$ be i.i.d. nonnegative weights on the vertices of a graph and study the weight of the minimal path between distant vertices. If $F$ is the distribution function of $\tau_v$, there are…

Discrete and continuum Liouville first passage percolation (DLFPP, LFPP) are two approximations of the conjectural $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) metric, obtained by exponentiating the discrete Gaussian free field (GFF) and the…

The Euclidean first-passage percolation (FPP) model of Howard and Newman is a rotationally invariant model of FPP which is built on a graph whose vertices are the points of homogeneous Poisson point process. It was shown that one has…

The first passage probability (FPP), of trafficked intracellular particles reaching a displacement L, in a given time t or inverse velocity S = t/L, can be calculated robustly from measured particle tracks, and gives a measure of particle…

The study of transversal fluctuations of the optimal path is a crucial aspect of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class. In this work, we establish the large deviation limit for the midpoint transversal fluctuations in a general…

We consider first passage percolation (FPP) where the vertex weight is given by the exponential of two-dimensional log-correlated Gaussian fields. Our work is motivated by understanding the discrete analog for the random metric associated…

We consider first-passage percolation (FPP) on the triangular lattice with vertex weights $(t_v)$ whose common distribution function $F$ satisfies $F(0)=1/2$. This is known as the critical case of FPP because large (critical) zero-weight…
