In this paper, in a Carnot group $\mathbb{G}$ of step $2$ and homogeneous dimension $Q$, we prove that almost minimizers of the (horizontal) one-phase $p$-Bernoulli-type functional $$ J_p(u,\Omega):=\int_{\Omega}\Big( |\nabla_{\mathbb{G}}…
We study local modifications of the graph distance in large random triangulations. Our main results show that, in large scales, the modified distance behaves like a deterministic constant $\mathbf{c}~\in~(0,\infty)$ times the usual graph…
We consider dynamical percolation on the $d$-dimensional discrete torus of side length $n$, $\mathbb{Z}_n^d$, where each edge refreshes its status at rate $\mu=\mu_n\le 1/2$ to be open with probability $p$. We study random walk on the…
We consider first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. weights, whose distribution function satisfies $F(0) = p_c = 1/2$. This is sometimes known as the "critical case" because large clusters of zero-weight edges force passage…
We examine bootstrap percolation on a regular (b+1)-ary tree with initial law given by Bernoulli(p). The sites are updated according to the usual rule: a vacant site becomes occupied if it has at least theta occupied neighbors, occupied…
We establish several equivalent characterisations of the anchored isoperimetric dimension of supercritical clusters in Bernoulli bond percolation on transitive graphs. We deduce from these characterisations together with a theorem of…
Let a random geometric graph be defined in the supercritical regime for the existence of a unique infinite connected component in Euclidean space. Consider the first-passage percolation model with independent and identically distributed…
We consider Bernoulli first-passage percolation on the triangular lattice in which sites have 0 and 1 passage times with probability $p$ and $1-p$, respectively. For each $p\in(0,p_c)$, let $\mathcal {B}(p)$ be the limit shape in the…
In this paper, we study some properties of optimal paths in the first passage percolation on $\Z^d$ and show the followings: (1) the number of optimal paths has an exponential growth if the distribution has an atom; (2) the means of…
We obtain a probabilistic proof of the local Lipschitz continuity for the optimal stopping boundary of a class of problems with state space $[0,T]\times\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge 1$. To the best of our knowledge this is the only existing proof…
In first-passage percolation, one places nonnegative i.i.d. random variables (T(e)) on the edges of Z^d. A geodesic is an optimal path for the passage times T(e). Consider a local property of the time environment. We call it a pattern. We…
Does there exist a Lipschitz injection of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ into the open set of a site percolation process on $\mathbb{Z}^D$, if the percolation parameter p is sufficiently close to 1? We prove a negative answer when d=D and also when…
On the $Z^2$ lattice, vertices are assigned random weights $W(i,j)$. The point-to-point last passage percolation (LPP) time $S_{M,N+1-M}$ between $(1,1)$ and $(M,N+1-M)$ is the maximum total weight among all upward/right-oriented paths…
We study the independent alignment percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ introduced by Beaton, Grimmett and Holmes [arXiv:1908.07203]. It is a model for random intersecting line segments defined as follows. First the sites of $\mathbb{Z}^d$…
We investigate stochastic interpolation, a recently introduced framework for high dimensional sampling which bears many similarities to diffusion modeling. Stochastic interpolation generates a data sample by first randomly initializing a…
In $r$-neighbor bootstrap percolation on the vertex set of a graph $G$, a set $A$ of initially infected vertices spreads by infecting, at each time step, all uninfected vertices with at least $r$ previously infected neighbors. When the…
For first passage percolation (FPP) on Euclidean lattices $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $d\ge 2$, it is expected that the variance of the first passage time between two points grows sublinearly in the distance with a universal exponent strictly…
The presence of temporal correlations in random movement trajectories is a widespread phenomenon across biological, chemical and physical systems. The ubiquity of persistent and anti-persistent motion in many natural and synthetic systems…
We study the two most common types of percolation process on a sparse random graph with a given degree sequence. Namely, we examine first a bond percolation process where the edges of the graph are retained with probability p and afterwards…
We study the distribution of finite clusters in slightly supercritical ($p \downarrow p_c$) Bernoulli bond percolation on transitive nonamenable graphs, proving in particular that if $G$ is a transitive nonamenable graph satisfying the…
