We study the asymptotic growth of the diameter of a graph obtained by adding sparse "long" edges to a square box in $\Z^d$. We focus on the cases when an edge between $x$ and $y$ is added with probability decaying with the Euclidean…
We provide the first nontrivial upper bound for the chemical distance exponent in two-dimensional critical percolation. Specifically, we prove that the expected length of the shortest horizontal crossing path of a box of side length $n$ in…
Consider a random symmetric matrix with i.i.d.~entries on and above its diagonal that are products of Bernoulli random variables and random variables with sub-Gaussian tails. Such a matrix will be called a sparse Wigner matrix and can be…
Given a supercritical branching random walk $\{Z_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ on $\mathbb{R}$, let $Z_n([y,\infty))$ be the number of particles located in $[y,\infty)\subset\mathbb{R}$ at generation $n$. Let $m$ be the mean of the offspring law of…
In $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $d\ge 5$, we consider the time constant $\rho_u$ associated to the chemical distance in random interlacements at low intensity $u \ll 1$. We prove an upper bound of order $u^{-1/2}$ and a lower bound of order…
We give a new derivation of mean-field percolation critical behaviour from the triangle condition that is quantitatively much better than previous proofs when the triangle diagram $\nabla_{p_c}$ is large. In contrast to earlier methods, our…
We study analytically the order and gap statistics of particles at time $t$ for the one dimensional branching Brownian motion, conditioned to have a fixed number of particles at $t$. The dynamics of the process proceeds in continuous time…
We prove that the set of thick points of the log-correlated Gaussian field contains an unbounded path in sufficiently high dimensions. This contrasts with the two-dimensional case, where Aru, Papon, and Powell (2023) showed that the set of…
The KPZ fixed point is a (1+1)-dimensional space-time random field conjectured to be the universal limit for models within the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class. We consider the KPZ fixed point with the narrow-wedge initial…
We investigate first-passage percolation on the lattice $\Z^d$ for dimensions $d \geq 2$. Each edge $e$ of the graph is assigned an independent copy of a non-negative random variable $\tau$. We only assume $\P[\tau=0]0$ is explicit) for the…
We consider oriented percolation on Z^d times Z_+ whose bond-occupation probability is pD(...), where p is the percolation parameter and D is a probability distribution on Z^d. Suppose that D(x) decays as |x|^{-d-\alpha} for some \alpha>0.…
A location- and scale-invariant predictor is constructed which exhibits good probability matching for extreme predictions outside the span of data drawn from a variety of (stationary) general distributions. It is constructed via the…
In a general class of one dimensional random differential equation the convergence of the distribution function of the solution to stationary state distribution is studied. In particular it is proved the boundedness respectively the…
We consider percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ and on the $d$-dimensional discrete torus, in dimensions $d \ge 11$ for the nearest-neighbour model and in dimensions $d>6$ for spread-out models. For $\mathbb{Z}^d$, we employ a wide range of…
In this paper we study bond percolation on a one-dimensional chain with power-law bond probability $C/ r^{1+\sigma}$, where $r$ is the distance length between distinct sites. We introduce and test an order $N$ Monte Carlo algorithm and we…
We prove the sharpness of the phase transition for speed in the biased random walk on the supercritical percolation cluster on Z^d. That is, for each d at least 2, and for any supercritical parameter p > p_c, we prove the existence of a…
We study level-set percolation of the Gaussian free field on the infinite $d$-regular tree for fixed $d\geq 3$. Denoting by $h_\star$ the critical value, we obtain the following results: for $h>h_\star$ we derive estimates on conditional…
We prove existence of the large deviation principle, with a proper convex rate function, for the distribution of the renormalized distance from the origin of a random walk on a free product of finitely generated groups. As a consequence, we…
Consider the indicator function $f$ of a two-dimensional percolation crossing event. In this paper, the Fourier transform of $f$ is studied and sharp bounds are obtained for its lower tail in several situations. Various applications of…
We consider site (vertex) percolation on $d$-regular graphs, for both constant-degree and growing-degree cases. We give sufficient, and relatively tight, conditions for the emergence of the ``Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi component phenomenon" in the…
