We show that the correction-to-scaling exponents in two-dimensional percolation are bounded by Omega <= 72/91, omega = D Omega <= 3/2, and Delta_1 = nu omega <= 2, based upon Cardy's result for the critical crossing probability on an…
A reaction-diffusion problem with a Caputo time derivative is considered. An integral discretization scheme on a graded mesh along with a decomposition of the exact solution is proposed. The truncation error estimate of the discretization…

We prove the scaling relation chi = 2 xi - 1 between the transversal exponent xi and the fluctuation exponent chi for directed polymers in a random environment in d dimensions. The definition of these exponents is similar to that proposed…
We introduce a class of one-dimensional discrete space-discrete time stochastic growth models described by a height function $h_t(x)$ with corner initialization. We prove, with one exception, that the limiting distribution function of…
Diffusive transport is characterized by the scaling law $(length)^{2}\propto(time)$. In this letter we show that this relationship is significantly altered in curved analogue spacetimes. This circumstance provides an opportunity to tailor…
In last passage percolation models, the energy of a path is maximized over all directed paths with given endpoints in a random environment, and the maximizing paths are called geodesics. The geodesics and their energy can be scaled so that…
We study the distribution of the percolation time $T$ of two-neighbour bootstrap percolation on $[n]^2$ with initial set $A\sim\mathrm{Bin}([n]^2,p)$. We determine $T$ with high probability up to a constant factor for all $p$ above the…

In the present paper, we focus on semi-parametric methods for estimating the absorption probability and the distribution of the absorbing time of a growth-fragmentation model observed within a long time interval. We establish that the…
We study the critical case of first-passage percolation in two dimensions. Letting $(t_e)$ be i.i.d. nonnegative weights assigned to the edges of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with $\mathbb{P}(t_e=0)=1/2$, consider the induced pseudometric (passage time)…
We present structural properties of two-dimensional polymers as far as they can be described by percolation theory. The percolation threshold, critical exponents and fractal dimensions of clusters are determined by computer simulation and…
In first-passage percolation (FPP), we let $(\tau_v)$ be i.i.d. nonnegative weights on the vertices of a graph and study the weight of the minimal path between distant vertices. If $F$ is the distribution function of $\tau_v$, there are…
Bi-infinite geodesics are fundamental objects of interest in planar first passage percolation. A longstanding conjecture states that under mild conditions there are almost surely no bigeodesics, however the result has not been proved in any…
We present an analytical approximation scheme for the first passage time distribution on a finite interval of a random walker on a random forcing energy landscape. The approximation scheme captures the behavior of the distribution over all…

In 1999, Zhang proved that, for first passage percolation on the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. non-negative edge weights, if the probability that the passage time distribution of an edge $P(t_e = 0) =1/2 $, the critical value…
We consider first-passage percolation on a ladder, i.e. the graph {0,1,...}*{0,1} where nodes at distance 1 are joined by an edge, and the times are exponentially i.i.d. with mean 1. We find an appropriate Markov chain to calculate an…
