Global physical properties of random media change qualitatively at a percolation threshold, where isolated clusters merge to form one infinite connected component. The precise knowledge of percolation thresholds is thus of paramount…
We introduce SAFT-P, a plaquette-level extension of Statistical Associating Fluid Theory for patchy particles. By treating local clusters as associating superparticles and contracting their free energy back to monomer densities, SAFT-P…
We consider the model of a directed polymer in a random environment defined on the infinite cluster of supercritical Bernoulli bond percolation in dimensions $d \geq 3$. For this model, it was proved in arXiv:2205.06206 that for almost…
We prove a lower bound on the entropy of sphere packings of $\mathbb R^d$ of density $\Theta(d \cdot 2^{-d})$. The entropy measures how plentiful such packings are, and our result is significantly stronger than the trivial lower bound that…
We consider connectivity properties of certain i.i.d. random environments on $\Z^d$, where at each location some steps may not be available. Site percolation and oriented percolation can be viewed as special cases of the models we consider.…
We study Mandelbrot's percolation process in dimension $d \geq 2$. The process generates random fractal sets by an iterative procedure which starts by dividing the unit cube $[0,1]^d$ in $N^d$ subcubes, and independently retaining or…
Percolation on a plane is usually associated with clusters spanning two opposite sides of a rectangular system. Here we investigate three-leg clusters generated on a square lattice and spanning the three sides of equilateral triangles. If…
We investigate random interlacements on Z^d, d bigger or equal to 3. This model recently introduced in arXiv:0704.2560 corresponds to a Poisson cloud on the space of doubly infinite trajectories modulo time-shift tending to infinity at…
We solve exactly a special case of the anisotropic directed bond percolation problem in three dimensions, in which the occupation probability is 1 along two spatial directions, by mapping it to a five-vertex model. We determine the…
Disagreement percolation connects a Gibbs lattice gas and i.i.d. site percolation on the same lattice such that non-percolation implies uniqueness of the Gibbs measure. This work generalises disagreement percolation to the hard-sphere model…
We prove that, the diffusivity and conductivity on $\mathbb{Z}^d$-Bernoulli percolation ($d \geq 2$) are infinitely differentiable in supercritical regime. This extends a result by Kozlov [Uspekhi Mat. Nauk 44 (1989), no. 2(266), pp 79 -…
The surface discharge of electrified dielectrics at high humidity is considered. The percolative nature of charge transport in electrets is established. Particular attention is given to the phenomena of adsorption and nucleation of…
The eikonalized parton-parton scattering amplitude at large $\sqrt{s}$ and large impact parameter, is dominated by the exchange of a hyperbolic surface in walled AdS. Its analytical continuation yields a worldsheet instanton that is at the…
We give the first properties of independent Bernoulli percolation, for oriented graphs on the set of vertices $\Z^d$ that are translation-invariant and may contain loops. We exhibit some examples showing that the critical probability for…
Using a recently developed method to simulate percolation on large clusters of distributed machines [N. R. Moloney and G. Pruessner, Phys. Rev. E 67, 037701 (2003)], we have numerically calculated crossing, spanning and wrapping…
We propose a method of studying the continuous percolation of aligned objects as a limit of a corresponding discrete model. We show that the convergence of a discrete model to its continuous limit is controlled by a power-law dependency…
The vacant set of random interlacements at level $u>0$, introduced in arXiv:0704.2560, is a percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d \geq 3$ which arises as the set of sites avoided by a Poissonian cloud of doubly infinite trajectories,…
We investigate a model of epidemic spreading with partial immunization which is controlled by two probabilities, namely, for first infections, $p_0$, and reinfections, $p$. When the two probabilities are equal, the model reduces to directed…
We present an in-depth analysis of the geometrical percolation behavior in the continuum of random assemblies of hard oblate ellipsoids of revolution. Simulations where carried out by considering a broad range of aspect-ratios, from spheres…
The square lattice with central forces between nearest neighbors is isostatic with a subextensive number of floppy modes. It can be made rigid by the random addition of next-nearest neighbor bonds. This constitutes a rigidity percolation…
