In two dimensions, the average electrical conductance from a point in a percolating network to the network boundary should be related by a conformal transformation to the conductance from one point to another in an unbounded network. We…
We reinvestigate the 2D problem of the inhomogeneous incipient infinite cluster where, in an independent percolation model, the density decays to p_c with an inverse power, \lambda, of the distance to the origin. Assuming the existence of…
Percolation theory and the associated conductance networks have provided deep insights into the flow and transport properties of a vast number of heterogeneous materials and media. In practically all cases, however, the conductance of the…

We present high statistics simulations for 2-d percolation clusters in the "bus bar" geometry at the critical point, for site and for bond percolation. We measured their backbone sizes and electrical conductivities. For all sets of…
We give a self-contained and detailed presentation of Kesten's results that allow to relate critical and near-critical percolation on the triangular lattice. They constitute an important step in the derivation of the exponents describing…
This is the first of two papers on the critical behaviour of bond percolation models in high dimensions. In this paper, we obtain strong joint control of the critical exponents eta and delta, for the nearest-neighbour model in very high…
We consider the percolation problem in the high-temperature Ising model on the two-dimensional square lattice at or near critical external fields. The incipient infinite cluster (IIC) measure in the sense of Kesten is constructed. As a…
We introduce a simple lattice model in which percolation is constructed on top of critical percolation clusters, and show that it can be repeated recursively any number $n$ of generations. In two dimensions, we determine the percolation…
We study critical bond percolation on periodic four-dimensional (4D) and five-dimensional (5D) hypercubes by Monte Carlo simulations. By classifying the occupied bonds into branches, junctions and non-bridges, we construct the whole, the…
While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…
This work answers the basic questions of superconductivity in a question-and-answer format. We extend a basic hypothesis to various superconductors. This hypothesis is that superconductivity requires that the pairing gap locates around the…
In critical percolation models, in a large cube there will typically be more than one cluster of comparable diameter. In 2D, the probability of $k>>1$ spanning clusters is of the order $e^{-\alpha k^{2}}$. In dimensions d>6, when $\eta = 0$…
We consider the bond percolation problem on a transient weighted graph induced by the excursion sets of the Gaussian free field on the corresponding cable system. Owing to the continuity of this setup and the strong Markov property of the…
We formulate and prove an exact relation which expresses the moments of the two-point conductance for an open disordered electron system in terms of certain density correlators of the corresponding closed system. As an application of the…
