We analyze site percolation on directed and undirected graphs with site-dependent open-site probabilities. We construct upper bounds on cluster susceptibilities, vertex connectivity functions, and the expected number of simple open cycles…
In this paper, we prove that Bernoulli percolation on bounded degree graphs with isoperimetric dimension $d>4$ undergoes a non-trivial phase transition (in the sense that $p_c<1$). As a corollary, we obtain that the critical point of…
A conjecture of Berkovich asserts that every non-simple finite p-group has a non-inner automorphism of order p. This conjecture is far from being proved despite the great effort devoted to it. In this paper we prove it for p-groups of…
We give an upper bound for the uniqueness transition on an arbitrary locally finite graph ${\cal G}$ in terms of the limit of the spectral radii $\rho\left[ H({\cal G}_t)\right]$ of the non-backtracking (Hashimoto) matrices for an…
We develop a theoretical approach to percolation in random clustered networks. We find that, although clustering in scale-free networks can strongly affect some percolation properties, such as the size and the resilience of the giant…
In this thesis, I am going to consider Bernoulli percolation on graphs admitting vertex-transitive actions of groups of isometries of d-dimensional hyperbolic spaces H^d. In the first chapter, I give an overview concerning percolation and…
Consider independent bond percolation with retention probability p on a spherically symmetric tree Gamma. Write theta_Gamma(p) for the probability that the root is in an infinite open cluster, and define the critical value…
The random-cluster model, a correlated bond percolation model, unifies a range of important models of statistical mechanics in one description, including independent bond percolation, the Potts model and uniform spanning trees. By…
Corner percolation is a dependent bond percolation model on Z^2 introduced by B\'alint T\'oth, in which each vertex has exactly two incident edges, perpendicular to each other. G\'abor Pete has proven in 2008 that under the maximal entropy…
We study oriented percolation on random causal triangulations, those are random planar graphs obtained roughly speaking by adding horizontal connections between vertices of an infinite tree. When the underlying tree is a geometric…
It is a central prediction of renormalisation group theory that the critical behaviours of many statistical mechanics models on Euclidean lattices depend only on the dimension and not on the specific choice of lattice. We investigate the…
Global physical properties of random media change qualitatively at a percolation threshold, where isolated clusters merge to form one infinite connected component. The precise knowledge of percolation thresholds is thus of paramount…
In the context of percolation in a regular tree, we study the size of the largest cluster and the length of the longest run starting within the first d generations. As d tends to infinity, we prove almost sure and weak convergence results.
A giant cluster emerges discontinuously in bond percolation in various networks when the growth of large clusters is globally suppressed. It was recently revealed that this phenomenon occurs even in a scale-free (SF) network, where hubs…
The critical phase of bond percolation on the random growing tree is examined. It is shown that the root cluster grows with the system size $N$ as $N^\psi$ and the mean number of clusters with size $s$ per node follows a power function $n_s…
We show that a superposition of an $\varepsilon$-Bernoulli bond percolation and any everywhere percolating subgraph of $\mathbb Z^d$, $d\ge 2$, results in a connected subgraph, which after a renormalization dominates supercritical Bernoulli…
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…
It is shown here that the percolation cluster that emerges from the percolation process on infinite perfect binary trees, is genuinely an encoding scheme for an infinite set of symbols. The average codeword length and the entropy of such an…
We study (unrooted) random forests on a graph where the probability of a forest is multiplicatively weighted by a parameter $\beta>0$ per edge. This is called the arboreal gas model, and the special case when $\beta=1$ is the uniform forest…
We consider simple random walk on the incipient infinite cluster for the spread-out model of oriented percolation on $Z^d \times Z_+$. In dimensions $d>6$, we obtain bounds on exit times, transition probabilities, and the range of the…
