Let $T$ be a random ergodic pseudometric over $\mathbb R^d$. This setting generalizes the classical \emph{first passage percolation} (FPP) over $\mathbb Z^d$. We provide simple conditions on $T$, the decay of instant one-arms and…

There are various models of first passage percolation (FPP) in $\mathbb R^d$. We want to start a very general study of this topic. To this end we generalize the first passage percolation model on the lattice $\mathbb Z^d$ to $\mathbb R^d$…

We study first passage percolation (FPP) on a Gromov-hyperbolic group $G$ with boundary $\partial G$ equipped with the Patterson-Sullivan measure $\nu$. We associate an i.i.d.\ collection of random passage times to each edge of a Cayley…

The study of first passage percolation (FPP) for the random interlacements model has been initiated in arXiv:2112.12096, where it is shown that on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\geq 3$, the FPP distance is comparable to the graph distance with high…

For $a>0$ and $b \geq 0$, let $\mathbb{G}_{a,b}$ be the subgraph of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ induced by the vertices between the first coordinate axis and the graph of the function $f = f_{a,b}(u) = a \log (1+u) + b \log(1+\log(1+u))$, $u \geq 0$. It…

The fluctuations of the passage time in first passage percolation are of great interest. We show that the non-random fluctuations in planar FPP are at least of order $\log(n)^\alpha$ for any $\alpha<1/2$ under some conditions that are known…

The Euclidean first-passage percolation (FPP) model of Howard and Newman is a rotationally invariant model of FPP which is built on a graph whose vertices are the points of homogeneous Poisson point process. It was shown that one has…

We consider first passage percolation (FPP) where the vertex weight is given by the exponential of two-dimensional log-correlated Gaussian fields. Our work is motivated by understanding the discrete analog for the random metric associated…

We consider i.i.d. first-passage percolation (FPP) on the two-dimensional square lattice, in the critical case where edge-weights take the value zero with probability $\tfrac{1}{2}$. Critical FPP is unique in that the Euclidean lengths of…

We extend a Gaussian functional inequality to a countable product of Gaussian measures. This inequality improves on the classical Poincare inequality for Gaussian measures. As an application, we prove that First Passage Percolation has…

In this paper we explore first passage percolation (FPP) on the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G_n(p_n)$, where each edge is given an independent exponential edge weight with rate 1. In the sparse regime, i.e., when $np_n\to \lambda>1,$ we…

We prove upper bounds on the one-arm exponent $\eta_1$ for a class of dependent percolation models which generalise Bernoulli percolation; while our main interest is level set percolation of Gaussian fields, the arguments apply to other…
