G\'{e}rard Watts predicted a formula for the probability in percolation that there is both a left--right and an up--down crossing, which was later proved by Julien Dub\'{e}dat. Here we present a simpler proof due to Oded Schramm, which…

Percolation is a concept widely used in many fields of research and refers to the propagation of substances through porous media (e.g., coffee filtering), or the behaviour of complex networks (e.g., spreading of diseases). Percolation…

Consider a uniform expanders family G_n with a uniform bound on the degrees. It is shown that for any p and c>0, a random subgraph of G_n obtained by retaining each edge, randomly and independently, with probability p, will have at most one…

We consider the Voronoi tessellation associated to a stationary simple point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with finite and positive intensity. We introduce the Delaunay triangulation as its dual graph, i.e.~the graph with vertex set given by…

We prove that Bernoulli bond percolation on any nonamenable, Gromov hyperbolic, quasi-transitive graph has a phase in which there are infinitely many infinite clusters, verifying a well-known conjecture of Benjamini and Schramm (1996) under…

We consider percolation on the discrete torus $\mathbb{Z}_n^d$ at $p_c(\mathbb{Z}^d)$, the critical value for percolation on the corresponding infinite lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, and within the scaling window around it. We assume that $d$ is a…

We consider multitype branching processes arising in the study of random laminations of the disk. We classify these processes according to their subcritical or supercritical behavior and provide Kolmogorov-type estimates in the critical…

We study the two-dimensional domain morphology of twisted nematic liquid crystals during their phase-ordering kinetics [R. A. L. Almeida, Phys. Rev. Lett. 131 (2023) 268101], which is a physical candidate to self-generate critical clusters…

We use SLE(6) paths to construct a process of continuum nonsimple loops in the plane and prove that this process coincides with the full continuum scaling limit of 2D critical site percolation on the triangular lattice -- that is, the…

We study the topological stability of Voronoi percolation in higher dimensions. We show that slightly increasing p allows a discretization that preserves increasing topological properties with high probability. This strengthens a theorem of…

This article employs the relation between probabilities of two consecutive values of a Poisson random variable to derive conditions for the weak convergence of point processes to a Poisson process. As applications, we consider the starting…

Following H. Tomita and C. Murakami we propose an analytical model to predict critical probability of percolation. It is based on the excursion set theory which allows us to consider N-dimensional bounded regions. Details are given for the…

Every realistic instance of a percolation problem is faced with some degree of polydispersity, e.g., the pore-size distribution of an inhomogeneous medium, the size distribution of filler particles in composite materials, or the vertex…

We study percolation on the hierarchical lattice of order $N$ where the probability of connection between two points separated by distance $k$ is of the form $c_k/N^{k(1+\delta)},\; \delta >-1$. Since the distance is an ultrametric, there…

In $H$-percolation, we start with an Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ and then iteratively add edges that complete copies of $H$. The process percolates if all edges missing from ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ are eventually added. We…
