We define a continuum percolation model that provides a collection of random ellipses on the plane and study the behavior of the covered set and the vacant set, the one obtained by removing all ellipses. Our model generalizes a construction…
Gaussian percolation can be seen as the generalization of standard Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Instead of a random discrete configuration on a lattice, we consider a continuous Gaussian field $f$ and we study the topological…
We identify the asymptotic distribution of the chemical distance in high-dimensional critical Bernoulli percolation. Namely, we show that the distance between the origin and a distant vertex conditioned to lie in the cluster of the origin…
In this paper we provide general conditions on a one parameter family of random infinite subsets of Z^d to contain a unique infinite connected component for which the chemical distances are comparable to the Euclidean distances, focusing…
We study the Poisson Boolean model with convex bodies which are rotation-invariant distributed. We assume that the convex bodies have regularly varying diameters with indices $-\alpha_1\geq \dots\geq-\alpha_d$ where $\alpha_k >0$ for all…
In this note, we describe some of the progress recently made on questions regarding the chemical distance in two-dimensional critical percolation by the author, J. Hanson, and P. Sosoe [6, 7]. It is expected that the distance between points…
We consider long-range percolation in dimension $d\geq 1$, where distinct sites $x$ and $y$ are connected with probability $p_{x,y}\in[0,1]$. Assuming that $p_{x,y}$ is translation invariant and that $p_{x,y}=\|x-y\|^{-s+o(1)}$ with $s>2d$,…
We study some geometric properties of the excursion set of a slope field alpha associated to a smooth, planar, centered, Gaussian field f. That, is we consider the set of all points such that the value of alpha is at most l where l is a…
The state space of our model is the Euclidean space in dimension d = 2. Simultaneously, from all points of a homogeneous Poisson point process, we let grow independent and identically distributed random continuum paths. Each path stops…
The chemical distance D(x,y) is the length of the shortest open path between two points x and y in an infinite Bernoulli percolation cluster. In this work, we study the asymptotic behaviour of this random metric, and we prove that, for an…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the maximum interpoint distance of random points in a planar bounded set with an unique major axis and a boundary behaving like an ellipse at the endpoints. Our main result covers the case of uniformly…
Consider an i.i.d. sample from an unknown density function supported on an unknown manifold embedded in a high dimensional Euclidean space. We tackle the problem of learning a distance between points, able to capture both the geometry of…
We show that random walk on the incipient infinite cluster (IIC) of two-dimensional critical percolation is subdiffusive in the chemical distance (i.e., in the intrinsic graph metric). Kesten (1986) famously showed that this is true for the…
On the supercritical percolation cluster with parameter p, the distances between two distant points of the axis are asymptotically increased by a factor 1+(1-p)/2+o(1-p) with respect to the usual distance. The proof is based on an…
Our study concerns the large scale geometry of the excursion set of planar random fields: E ${\ell}$ = {x $\in$ R 2 |f (x) $\ge$-${\ell}$}, where ${\ell}$ $\in$ R is a real parameter and f is a continuous, stationary, centered, planar…
We study percolation on the hierarchical lattice of order $N$ where the probability of connection between two points separated by distance $k$ is of the form $c_k/N^{k(1+\delta)},\; \delta >-1$. Since the distance is an ultrametric, there…
We consider critical site percolation ($p=p_c=1/2$) on the triangular lattice $\mathbf{T}$ in two dimensions. We show that the simple random walk on the clusters of open vertices converges in the scaling limit to a continuous diffusion…
We continue our study of the chemical (graph) distance inside large critical percolation clusters in dimension two. We prove new estimates, which involve the three-arm probability, for the point-to-surface and point-to-point distances. We…
The half-orthant model is a partially oriented model of a random medium involving a parameter $p\in [0,1]$, for which there is a critical value $p_c(d)$ (depending on the dimension $d$) below which every point is reachable from the origin.…
We obtain Gaussian upper and lower bounds on the transition density q_t(x,y) of the continuous time simple random walk on a supercritical percolation cluster C_{\infty} in the Euclidean lattice. The bounds, analogous to Aronsen's bounds for…
