We consider the interlacement Poisson point process on the space of doubly-infinite Z^d-valued trajectories modulo time-shift, tending to infinity at positive and negative infinite times. The set of vertices and edges visited by at least…
In this article, we first extend the construction of random interlacements, introduced by A.S. Sznitman in [arXiv:0704.2560], to the more general setting of transient weighted graphs. We prove the Harris-FKG inequality for this model and…
In this paper we establish some properties of percolation for the vacant set of random interlacements, for d at least 5 and small intensity u. The model of random interlacements was first introduced by A.S. Sznitman in arXiv:0704.2560. It…

The random interlacements (at level u) is a one parameter family of random subsets of Z^d introduced by Sznitman in arXiv:0704.2560. The vacant set at level u is the complement of the random interlacement at level u. In this paper, we study…
We offer a solution to a long-standing problem in the physics of networks, the creation of a plausible, solvable model of a network that displays clustering or transitivity -- the propensity for two neighbors of a network node also to be…
For a large class of amenable transient weighted graphs $G$, we prove that the sign clusters of the Gaussian free field on $G$ fall into a regime of strong supercriticality, in which two infinite sign clusters dominate (one for each sign),…
The random interlacements $\mathscr{I}(u)$ at level $u$ has been introduced by Sznitman, as a Poissonian collection of independent simple random walk trajectories on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\geq 3$, with intensity $u>0$. Since then, several works…
We prove the uniqueness of the infinite connected component for the vacant set of random interlacements on general vertex-transitive amenable transient graphs. Our approach is based on connectedness of random interlacements and differs from…
The model of random interlacements is a one-parameter family $\mathcal I^u,$ $u \ge 0,$ of random subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^d,$ which locally describes the trace of simple random walk on a $d$-dimensional torus run up to time $u$ times its…
The random interlacement point process (introduced by Sznitman, generalized by Teixeira) is a Poisson point process on the space of labeled doubly infinite nearest neighbour trajectories modulo time-shift on a transient graph $G$. We show…
A class A of labelled graphs is bridge-addable if for all graphs G in A and all vertices u and v in distinct connected components of G, the graph obtained by adding an edge between u and u is also in A; the class A is monotone if for all G…
We consider the model of random interlacements on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ introduced in Sznitman [Vacant set of random interlacements and percolation (2007) preprint]. For this model, we prove the uniqueness of the infinite component of the vacant…
We study the trajectory of a simple random walk on a d-regular graph with d>2 and locally tree-like structure as the number n of vertices grows. Examples of such graphs include random d-regular graphs and large girth expanders. For these…
Let the class A of graphs be bridge-addable; that is, whenever a graph G in A has vertices u and v in different components then the graph G+uv is in A. For a random graph sampled uniformly from the graphs in A on vertex set {1,..,n}, there…
Following the recent work of Sznitman (arXiv:0805.4516), we investigate the microscopic picture induced by a random walk trajectory on a cylinder of the form G_N x Z, where G_N is a large finite connected weighted graph, and relate it to…
Given a weighted graph, we introduce a partition of its vertex set such that the distance between any two clusters is bounded from below by a power of the minimum weight of both clusters. This partition is obtained by recursively merging…
The connective constant $\mu(G)$ of an infinite transitive graph $G$ is the exponential growth rate of the number of self-avoiding walks from a given origin. The relationship between connective constants and amenability is explored in the…
This paper is an up-to-date introduction to the problem of uniqueness versus non-uniqueness of infinite clusters for percolation on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$ and, more generally, on transitive graphs. For iid percolation on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$,…
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…
