We point out that, in some models of small-x hard processes, the transition to the Pomeron regime occurs through a sudden tunneling effect, rather than a slow diffusion process. We explain the basis for such a feature and we illustrate it…

We consider a variant of a classical coverage process, the boolean model in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Previous efforts have focused on convergence of the unoccupied region containing the origin to a well studied limit $C$. We study the intersection…

The critical behaviour of several spin models can be simply described as percolation of some suitably defined clusters, or droplets: the onset of the geometrical transition coincides with the critical point and the percolation exponents are…

In this work we demonstrate the ability of the Minimal Spanning Tree to duplicate the information contained within a percolation analysis for a point dataset. We show how to construct the percolation properties from the Minimal Spanning…

Microflows are intensively used for investigating and controlling the dynamics of particles, including soft particles such as biological cells and capsules. A classic result is the tank-treading motion of elliptically deformed soft…

Motivated by recent findings, we discuss the existence of a direct and robust mechanism providing discontinuous absorbing transitions in short range systems with single species, with no extra symmetries or conservation laws. We consider…

The recent proliferation of correlated percolation models---models where the addition of edges/vertices is no longer independent of other edges/vertices---has been motivated by the quest to find discontinuous percolation transitions. The…

We report the discovery of a discrete hierarchy of micro-transitions occurring in models of continuous and discontinuous percolation. The precursory micro-transitions allow us to target almost deterministically the location of the…

One of the focal points of the modern literature on Bayesian nonparametrics has been the problem of clustering, or partitioning, where each data point is modeled as being associated with one and only one of some collection of groups called…

The main purpose of percolation theory is to model phase transitions in a variety of random systems, which is highly valuable in fields related to materials physics, biology, or otherwise unrelated areas like oil extraction or even quantum…

Percolation is a model for random damage to a network. It is one of the simplest models that displays a phase transition: when the network is severely damaged, it falls apart in many small connected components, while if the damage is light,…

Although introduced in the case of Poisson random measures, the lent particle method applies as well in other situations. We study here the case of marked point processes. In this case the Malliavin calculus (here in the sense of Dirichlet…

We study a two-species bidirectional exclusion process, and a single species variant, which is motivated by the motion of organelles and vesicles along microtubules. Specifically, we are interested in the clustering of the particles and…

Discontinuous transition is observed in the equilibrium cluster properties of a percolation model with suppressed cluster growth as the growth parameter g0 is tuned to the critical threshold at sufficiently low initial seed concentration…

We are interested in the clusters formed by a Poisson ensemble of Markovian loops on infinite graphs. This model was introduced and studied in [LeJ12] and [LL12]. It is a model with long range correlations with two parameters $\alpha$ and…
