We identify a natural analytic continuation in four dimensions from Minkowski signature to a signature with two time-like momentum components. For two, three and four-point diagrams at fixed external momenta, this continuation can be…
Criticality is traditionally regarded as an unstable, fine-tuned fixed point of the renormalization group. We introduce an iterative bicolored percolation process in two dimensions and show that it can both preserve criticality and…
Numerical investigation of critical exponents on a hypercubic with L^d random sites with L up to $33 and d up to 7 show that above the critical dimension the phase transitions in Ising model and percolation are not alike.
We prove that the acyclic chromatic number of a graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ is less than $2.835\Delta^{4/3}+\Delta$. This improves the previous upper bound, which was $50\Delta^{4/3}$. To do so, we draw inspiration from works by…
We introduce a notion of capacity for high dimensional critical percolation by showing that for any finite set $A$, the suitably rescaled probability that the cluster of $z$ intersects $A$ converges as $\|z\|\to\infty$. This can be viewed…
Universality, encompassing critical exponents, scaling functions, and dimensionless quantities, is fundamental to phase transition theory. In finite systems, universal behaviors are also expected to emerge at the pseudocritical point.…
In this article, we present four issues and provide a creative and concise proof for each of them. The four issues are: 1- Inequality $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n\pi+\frac{\pi}{2}}}<\frac{\binom{2n}{n}}{2^{2n}}<\frac{1}{\sqrt{n\pi}}$ 2- A special case…
We apply a variation on the methods of Duminil-Copin, Raoufi, and Tassion to establish a new differential inequality applying to both Bernoulli percolation and the Fortuin-Kasteleyn random cluster model. This differential inequality has a…
We investigate the formation of an infinite cluster of entangled threads in a (2+1)-dimensional system. We demonstrate that topological percolation belongs to the universality class of the standard 2D bond percolation. We compute the…
Directed percolation is one of the most prominent universality classes of nonequilibrium phase transitions and can be found in a large variety of models. Despite its theoretical success, no experiment is known which clearly reproduces the…
We study the 2d-Ising model defined on finite boxes at temperatures that are below but very close from the critical point. When the temperature approaches the critical point and the size of the box grows fast enough, we establish large…
We locate the critical threshold $p_c$ at which it becomes likely that the complete graph $K_n$ can be obtained from the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph ${\cal G}_{n,p}$ by iteratively completing copies of $K_4$ minus an edge. This refines work of…
Classically, percolation critical exponents are linked to the power laws that characterize percolation cluster fractal properties. It is found here that the gradient percolation power laws are conserved even for extreme gradient values for…
Let $p_c(\mathbb{Q}_n)$ and $p_c(\mathbb{Z}^n)$ denote the critical values for nearest-neighbour bond percolation on the $n$-cube $\mathbb{Q}_n = \{0,1\}^n$ and on $\Z^n$, respectively. Let $\Omega = n$ for $\mathbb{G} = \mathbb{Q}_n$ and…
Connections are found between the two-component percolation problem and the conductor/insulator percolation problem. These produce relations between critical exponents, and suggest formulae connecting the conductivity exponents in different…
We propose an open question that seeks to generalise the Four Colour Theorem from two to three dimensions. As an appetiser, we show that 12 instead of four colours are both sufficient and necessary to colour every 2-complex that embeds in a…
In the moduli space of degree d polynomials, we prove the equidistribution of postcritically finite polynomials toward the bifurcation measure. More precisely, using complex analytic arguments and pluripotential theory, we prove the…
A graph is diameter-2-critical if its diameter is 2 but the removal of any edge increases the diameter. A well-studied conjecture, known as the Murty-Simon conjecture, states that any diameter-2-critical graph of order n has at most…
The paper studies the relationship between diffraction and dynamics for uniformly discrete ergodic point processes in real spaces. This relationship takes the form of an isometric embedding of two L^2 spaces. Diffraction (or equivalently…
We study the geometry of the critical clusters in fully coordinated percolation on the square lattice. By Monte Carlo simulations (static exponents) and normal mode analysis (dynamic exponents), we find that this problem is in the same…
