A useful result about leftmost and rightmost paths in two dimensional bond percolation is proved. This result was introduced without proof in \cite{G} in the context of the contact process in continuous time. As discussed here, it also…
We consider recurrence versus transience for models of random walks on domains of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, in which monotone interaction enforces domain growth as a result of visits by the walk (or probes it sent), to the neighborhood of domain…
This paper studies the linking numbers of random links within the grid model. The linking number is treated as a random variable on the isotopy classes of 2-component links, with the paper exploring its asymptotic growth as the diagram size…
We consider random graphs $\mathcal{G}$ built on a homogeneous Poisson point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$, with points $x$ marked by i.i.d. random variables $E_x$. Fixed a symmetric function $h(\cdot, \cdot)$, the vertexes of…
For a finite graph, we establish natural isomorphisms between eigenspaces of a Laplace operator acting on functions on the edges and eigenspaces of a transfer operator acting on functions on one-sided infinite non-backtracking paths.…
We consider the Poisson Boolean model of continuum percolation on a homogeneous Riemannian manifold $M$. Let $lambda$ be intensity of the Poisson process in the model and let $lambda_u$ be the infimum of the set of intensities that a.s.…
We show that the edges crossed by a random walk in a network form a recurrent graph a.s. In fact, the same is true when those edges are weighted by the number of crossings.
Consider a discrete locally finite subset $\Gamma$ of $R^d$ and the complete graph $(\Gamma,E)$, with vertices $\Gamma$ and edges $E$. We consider Gibbs measures on the set of sub-graphs with vertices $\Gamma$ and edges $E'\subset E$. The…
Let $(G,\mu)$ be a uniformly elliptic random conductance graph on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with a Poisson point process of particles at time $t=0$ that perform independent simple random walks. We show that inside a cube $Q_K$ of side length $K$, if…
Given an infinite connected regular graph $G=(V,E)$, place at each vertex Pois($\lambda$) walkers performing independent lazy simple random walks on $G$ simultaneously. When two walkers visit the same vertex at the same time they are…
In this paper we study the rate of convergence of the iterates of \iid random piecewise constant monotone maps to the time-$1$ transport map for the process of coalescing Brownian motions. We prove that the rate of convergence is given by a…
We study the two most common types of percolation process on a sparse random graph with a given degree sequence. Namely, we examine first a bond percolation process where the edges of the graph are retained with probability p and afterwards…
We introduce a process where a connected rooted multigraph evolves by splitting events on its vertices, occurring randomly in continuous time. When a vertex splits, its incoming edges are randomly assigned between its offspring and a…
We consider random walks in a random environment that is given by i.i.d. Dirichlet distributions at each vertex of Z^d or, equivalently, oriented edge reinforced random walks on Z^d. The parameters of the distribution are a 2d-uplet of…
The state space of our model is the Euclidean space in dimension d = 2. Simultaneously, from all points of a homogeneous Poisson point process, we let grow independent and identically distributed random continuum paths. Each path stops…
We propose a distribution-free approach to the study of random geometric graphs. The distribution of vertices follows a Poisson point process with intensity function $nf(\cdot)$, where $n\in \mathbb{N}$, and $f$ is a probability density…
Let $X$ be either $Z^d$ or the points of a Poisson process in $R^d$ of intensity 1. Given parameters $r$ and $p$, join each pair of points of $X$ within distance $r$ independently with probability $p$. This is the simplest case of a…
We construct an infinitely exchangeable process on the set $\cate$ of subsets of the power set of the natural numbers $\mathbb{N}$ via a Poisson point process with mean measure $\Lambda$ on the power set of $\mathbb{N}$. Each $E\in\cate$…
We consider random walk on a mildly random environment on finite transitive d- regular graphs of increasing girth. After scaling and centering, the analytic spectrum of the transition matrix converges in distribution to a Gaussian noise. An…
Motivated by Alain-Sol Sznitman's interlacement process, we consider the set of $\{0,1\}$-valued processes which can be constructed in an analogous way, namely as a union of sets coming from a Poisson process on a collection of sets. Our…
