In this paper we consider first-passage percolation on certain 1-dimensional periodic graphs, such as the $\Z\times\{0,1,\ldots,K-1\}^{d-1}$ nearest neighbour graph for $d,K\geq1$. We find that both length and weight of minimal-weight paths…

A new short clear proof of the asymptotics for the number $c_n$ of real roots of the Bernoulli polynomials $B_n(x)$, as well as for the maximal root $y_n$: $$y_n=\frac{n}{2\pi e}+\frac{\ln(n)}{4\pi e}+O(1)\quad\text{and}\quad…
