The Hamming graph $H(d,n)$ is the Cartesian product of $d$ complete graphs on $n$ vertices. Let $m=d(n-1)$ be the degree and $V = n^d$ be the number of vertices of $H(d,n)$. Let $p_c^{(d)}$ be the critical point for bond percolation on…
We study the cluster-size distribution of supercritical long-range percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, where two vertices $x,y\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ are connected by an edge with probability $\mathrm{p}(\|x-y\|):=p\min(1,\beta\|x-y\|)^{-d\alpha}$ for…
In this paper, we study the k-neighbor bootstrap percolation process on the d-dimensional grid [n]^d, and show that the minimum number of initial vertices that percolate is (1-d/k)n^d + O(n^{d-1})$ when d<=k<=2d. This confirms a conjecture…
An upper bound for the critical probability of long range bond percolation in $d=2$ and $d=3$ is obtained by connecting the bond percolation with the SIR epidemic model, thus complementing the lower bound result in Frei and Perkins…
For the critical level-set of the Gaussian free field on the metric graph of $\mathbb Z^d$, we consider the one-arm probability $\theta_d(N)$, i.e., the probability that the boundary of a box of side length $2N$ is connected to the center.…
We describe the component sizes in critical independent p-bond percolation on a random d-regular graph on n vertices, where d \geq 3 is fixed and n grows. We prove mean-field behavior around the critical probability p_c=1/(d-1). In…
We develop a new simple approach to prove upper bounds for generalizations of the Heilbronn's triangle problem in higher dimensions. Among other things, we show the following: for fixed $d \ge 1$, any subset of $[0, 1]^d$ of size $n$…
We consider random interlacements on Z^d, with d bigger or equal to 3, when their vacant set is in a strongly percolative regime. We derive an asymptotic upper bound on the probability that the random interlacements disconnect a box of…
We investigate the scaling of the largest critical percolation cluster on a large d-dimensional torus, for nearest-neighbor percolation in high dimensions, or when d>6 for sufficient spread-out percolation. We use a relatively simple…
We consider the cardinality of supercritical oriented bond percolation in two dimensions. We show that, whenever the origin is conditioned to percolate, the process appropriately normalized converges asymptotically in distribution to the…
Given a lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider its Minkowski reduced basis and the solid angle $\Omega$ spanned by the basis vectors. Such a basis satisfies strong near-orthogonality conditions, which allow us to bound from…
There are very few systems of interacting particles (with continuous variables) for which the entanglement of the concomitant eigenfunctions can be computed in an exact, analytical way. Here we present analytical calculations of the amount…
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…
In this paper we present the proof of the convergence of the critical bond percolation exploration process on the square lattice to the trace of SLE$_{6}$. This is an important conjecture in mathematical physics and probability. The case of…
We prove a local limit theorem for the probability of a site to be connected by disjoint paths to three points in subcritical Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^{d},\,d\geq2$ in the limit where their distances tend to infinity.
Consider a system consisting of n d-dimensional quantum particles (qudits), and suppose that we want to optimize the entanglement between each pair. One can ask the following basic question regarding the sharing of entanglement: what is the…
We give a short proof of the fundamental result that the critical probability for bond percolation in the planar square lattice is equal to 1/2. The lower bound was proved by Harris, who showed in 1960 that percolation does not occur at…
Percolation theory has become a useful tool for the analysis of large-scale wireless networks. We investigate the fundamental problem of characterizing the critical density $\lambda_c^{(d)}$ for $d$-dimensional Poisson random geometric…
We study a scheme for entangling two-level atoms located close to the surface of a dielectric microsphere. The effect is based on medium-assisted spontaneous decay, rigorously taking into account dispersive and absorptive properties of the…
It is shown, non--rigorously, that the effective action on a Z_q factored odd spheres (lune) has a vanishing derivative at q=1. This leaves the effective action on the ordinary odd d-sphere as (minus) the value of the entanglement entropy…
