In 1999, Zhang proved that, for first passage percolation on the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. non-negative edge weights, if the probability that the passage time distribution of an edge $P(t_e = 0) =1/2 $, the critical value…

Let $d\geq 2$. We consider an i.i.d. supercritical bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, every edge is open with a probability $p>p_c(d)$, where $p_c(d)$ denotes the critical point. We condition on the event that $0$ belongs to the infinite…
As well known the rotation distance D(S,T) between two binary trees S, T of n vertices is the minimum number of rotations of pairs of vertices to transform S into T. We introduce the new operation of chain rotation on a tree, involving two…

We consider quenched critical percolation on a supercritical Galton--Watson tree with either finite variance or $\alpha$-stable offspring tails for some $\alpha \in (1,2)$. We show that the GHP scaling limit of a quenched critical…
The stochastic addition of either vertices or connections in a network leads to the observation of the percolation transition, a structural change with the appearance of a connected component encompassing a finite fraction of the system.…
In this note, we describe some of the progress recently made on questions regarding the chemical distance in two-dimensional critical percolation by the author, J. Hanson, and P. Sosoe [6, 7]. It is expected that the distance between points…
The iterative decoding threshold of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes over the binary erasure channel (BEC) fulfills an upper bound depending only on the variable and check nodes with minimum distance 2. This bound is a consequence of…
We consider bond percolation on $\Z^d\times \Z^s$ where edges of $\Z^d$ are open with probability $p<p_c(\Z^d)$ and edges of $\Z^s$ are open with probability $q$, independently of all others. We obtain bounds for the critical curve in $(p,…
The extinction probability of the Markovian Binary Tree (MBT) is the minimal nonnegative solution of a Quadratic Vector Equation (QVE). In this paper, we present a perturbation analysis for the extinction probability of a supercritical MBT.…

We consider isoperimetric sets, i.e., sets with minimal vertex boundary for a prescribed volume, of the infinite cluster of supercritical site percolation on the triangular lattice. Let $p$ be the percolation parameter and let $p_c$ be the…
We consider the density of two-dimensional critical percolation clusters, constrained to touch one or both boundaries, in infinite strips, half-infinite strips, and squares, as well as several related quantities for the infinite strip. Our…
We prove the existence of scaling limits for the projection on the backbone of the random walks on the Incipient Infinite Cluster and the Invasion Percolation Cluster on a regular tree. We treat these projected random walks as randomly…
We consider high-dimensional percolation at the critical threshold. We condition the origin to be disjointly connected to two points, $x$ and $x'$, and subsequently take the limit as $|x|$, $|x'|$ as well as $|x-x'|$ diverge to infinity.…
We compare phase transition and critical phenomena of bond percolation on Euclidean lattices, nonamenable graphs, and complex networks. On a Euclidean lattice, percolation shows a phase transition between the nonpercolating phase and…
