We generalize the standard site percolation model on the $d$-dimensional lattice to a model on random tessellations of $\mathbb R^d$. We prove the uniqueness of the infinite cluster by adapting the Burton-Keane argument…
Recently the second named author discovered a combinatorial identity in the context of vertex representations of quantum Kac-Moody algebras. We give a direct and elementary proof of this identity. Our method is to show a related identity of…
Permutation patterns and pattern avoidance have been intensively studied in combinatorics and computer science, going back at least to the seminal work of Knuth on stack-sorting (1968). Perhaps the most natural algorithmic question in this…
It is shown that the celebrated result of Sparre Andersen for random walks and L\'evy processes has intriguing consequences when the last time of the process in $(-\infty,0]$, say $\sigma$, is added to the picture. In the case of no…
This paper considers contact processes with additional voter model dynamics. For such models, results of Lloyd and Sudbury can be applied to find a self-duality, as well as dualities and thinning relations with systems of random walks with…
This paper is dedicated to the study of the interaction between dynamical systems and percolation models, with views towards the study of viral infections whose virus mutate with time. Recall that r-bootstrap percolation describes a…
The model of Brownian Percolation has been introduced as an approximation of discrete last-passage percolation models close to the axis. It allowed to compute some explicit limits and prove fluctuation theorems for these, based on the…
We investigate the heterogeneity of outcomes of repeated instances of percolation experiments in complex networks using a message passing approach to evaluate heterogeneous, node dependent probabilities of belonging to the giant or…
We study the directed last-passage percolation model on the planar integer lattice with nearest-neighbor steps and general i.i.d. weights on the vertices, outside the class of exactly solvable models. Stationary cocycles are constructed for…
We propose a bond-percolation model intended to describe the consumption, and eventual exhaustion, of resources in transport networks. Edges forming minimum-length paths connecting demanded origin-destination nodes are removed if below a…
We reconsider the problem of percolation on an equilibrium random network with degree-degree correlations between nearest-neighboring vertices focusing on critical singularities at a percolation threshold. We obtain criteria for…
In this paper we will prove a shape theorem for the last passage percolation model on a two dimensional $F$-compound Poisson process, called the Hammersley model with random weights. We will also provide diffusive upper bounds for shape…
We construct an almost sure bijection that recovers the directed landscape on the half-plane from a sequence of independent Brownian motions. This map is the natural scaling limit of the Robinson--Schensted--Knuth (RSK) correspondence. The…
We present a new algorithm for iterating over all permutations of a sequence. The algorithm leverages elementary~$O(1)$ operations on recursive lists. As a result, no new nodes are allocated during the computation. Instead, all elements are…
Permutation is the different arrangements that can be made with a given number of things taking some or all of them at a time. The notation P(n,r) is used to denote the number of permutations of n things taken r at a time. Permutation is…
In this paper we study the oriented swap process on the positive integers and its asymptotic properties. Our results extend a theorem by Angel, Holroyd, and Romik regarding the trajectories of particles in the finite oriented swap process.…
In this note, we prove convergence of the half-space exponential last passage percolation (LPP) model, away from the boundary, to the directed landscape. Our approach couples the half-space and full-space LPP models and constructs two…
Establishing cutoff, an abrupt transition from "not mixed" to "well mixed", is a classical topic in the theory of mixing times for Markov chains. Interest has grown recently in determining not only the existence of cutoff and the order of…
The traditional node percolation map of directed networks is reanalyzed in terms of edges. In the percolated phase, edges can mainly organize into five distinct giant connected components, interfaces bridging the communication of nodes in…
We present a deterministic comparison-based algorithm that sorts sequences avoiding a fixed permutation $\pi$ in linear time, even if $\pi$ is a priori unkown. Moreover, the dependence of the multiplicative constant on the pattern $\pi$…
