For a given dimension d $\ge$ 2 and a finite measure $\nu$ on (0, +$\infty$), we consider $\xi$ a Poisson point process on R d x (0, +$\infty$) with intensity measure dc $\otimes$ $\nu$ where dc denotes the Lebesgue measure on R d. We…

Consider $\Xi$ a homogeneous Poisson point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d\geq 2$) with unit intensity with respect to the Lebesgue measure. For $\varepsilon\geq 0$, we define the Boolean model $\Sigma_{p, \varepsilon}$ as the union of the…

We consider a first-passage percolation model on a Delaunay triangulation of the plane. In this model each edge is independently equipped with a nonnegative random variable, with distribution function F, which is interpreted as the time it…

We study the time constant $\mu(e_{1})$ in first passage percolation on $\mathbb Z^{d}$ as a function of the dimension. We prove that if the passage times have finite mean, $$\lim_{d \to \infty} \frac{\mu(e_{1}) d}{\log d} = \frac{1}{2a},$$…

In the models of first-passage percolation and directed first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, we consider a family of i.i.d. random variables indexed by the set of edges of the graph, called passage times. For every vertex $x \in…

We consider the standard model of first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\geq 2$), with i.i.d. passage times associated with either the edges or the vertices of the graph. We focus on the particular case where the distribution of…

In [2], it was claimed that the time constant $\mu_{d}(e_{1})$ for the first-passage percolation model on $\mathbb Z^{d}$ is $\mu_{d}(e_{1}) \sim \log d/(2ad)$ as $d\to \infty$, if the passage times $(\tau_{e})_{e\in \mathbb E^{d}}$ are…

We consider the model of i.i.d. first passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ : we associate with each edge $e$ of the graph a passage time $t(e)$ taking values in $[0,+\infty]$, such that $\mathbb{P}[t(e)<+\infty] >p_c(d)$. Equivalently, we…

We consider two different objects on super-critical Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ : the time constant for i.i.d. first-passage percolation (for $d\geq 2$) and the isoperimetric constant (for $d=2$). We prove that both objects are…

We study planar first-passage percolation with independent weights whose common distribution is supported in $(0,\infty)$ and is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. We prove that the passage time from $x$ to $y$ denoted…

Consider a bipartite random geometric graph on the union of two independent homogeneous Poisson point processes in $d$-space, with distance parameter $r$ and intensities $\lambda,\mu$. For any $\lambda>0$ we consider the percolation…

This paper focuses on the time constant for last passage percolation on complete graph. Let $G_n=([n],E_n)$ be the complete graph on vertex set $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, and i.i.d. sequence $\{X_e:e\in E_n\}$ be the passage times of edges.…

We consider the directed first passage percolation model on ${\bf Z}^2$. In this model, we assign independently to each edge $e$ a passage time $t(e)$ with a common distribution $F$. We denote by $\vec{T}({\bf 0}, (r,\theta))$ the passage…

We study the site version of (independent) first-passage percolation on the triangular lattice $\mathbb{T}$. Denote the passage time of the site $v$ in $\mathbb{T}$ by $t(v)$, and assume that $P(t(v)=0)=P(t(v)=1)=1/2$. Denote by $a_{0,n}$…

Let $T$ be a random ergodic pseudometric over $\mathbb R^d$. This setting generalizes the classical \emph{first passage percolation} (FPP) over $\mathbb Z^d$. We provide simple conditions on $T$, the decay of instant one-arms and…

First passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ is a model for describing the spread of an infection on the sites of the square lattice. The infection is spread via nearest neighbor sites and the time dynamic is specified by random passage…

Let $0<a<b<\infty$ be fixed scalars. Assign independently to each edge in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ the value $a$ with probability $p$ or the value $b$ with probability $1-p$. For all $u,v\in\mathbb{Z}^2$, let $T(u,v)$ denote the first…

We consider the standard model of i.i.d. first passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ given a distribution $G$ on $[0,+\infty]$ ($+\infty$ is allowed). When $G([0,+\infty]) < p_c(d)$, it is known that the time constant $\mu_G$ exists. We are…

We consider the Bernoulli first-passage percolation on $\mathbb Z^d (d\ge 2)$. That is, the edge passage time is taken independently to be 1 with probability $1-p$ and 0 otherwise. Let ${\mu(p)}$ be the time constant. We prove in this paper…

We consider first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. weights, whose distribution function satisfies $F(0) = p_c = 1/2$. This is sometimes known as the "critical case" because large clusters of zero-weight edges force passage…
