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…

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…

Considering supercritical Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, Garet and Marchand [GM09] proved a diffusive concentration for the graph distance. In this paper, we sharpen this result by establishing the subdiffusive concentration…
