We consider the Constrained-degree percolation model on the hypercubic lattice, $\mathbb L^d=(\mathbb Z^d,\mathbb E^d)$ for $d\geq 3$. It is a continuous time percolation model defined by a sequence, $(U_e)_{e\in\mathbb E^d}$, of i.i.d.…
We propose a model for anomalous transport in inhomogeneous environments, such as fractured rocks, in which particles move only along pre-existing self-similar curves (cracks). The stochastic Loewner equation is used to efficiently generate…
We investigate the statistics of the first-passage time (FPT) to a fractal self-similar boundary of the Koch snowflake. When the starting position is fixed near the absorbing boundary, the FPT distribution exhibits an apparent power-law…
We describe the critical window for percolation in the universality class of sparse growing random graphs. In our models, vertices arrive sequentially and connect independently to each earlier vertex $v$ with probability proportional to a…
In this paper, we investigate random walks in a family of small-world trees having an exponential degree distribution. First, we address a trapping problem, that is, a particular case of random walks with an immobile trap located at the…
Let $0<a<b<\infty$ be fixed scalars. Assign independently to each edge in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ the value $a$ with probability $p$ or the value $b$ with probability $1-p$. For all $u,v\in\mathbb{Z}^2$, let $T(u,v)$ denote the first…
Let $E$ be the set of edges of the $d$-dimensional cubic lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, with $d\geq2$, and let $t(e),e\in E$, be nonnegative values. The passage time from a vertex $v$ to a vertex $w$ is defined as $\inf_{\pi:v\rightarrow…
Discrete Liouville first passage percolation (LFPP) with parameter $\xi > 0$ is the random metric on a sub-graph of $\mathbb Z^2$ obtained by assigning each vertex $z$ a weight of $e^{\xi h(z)}$, where $h$ is the discrete Gaussian free…
In this paper we consider first passage percolation on the square lattice \(\mathbb{Z}^d\) with edge passage times that are independent and have uniformly bounded second moment, but not necessarily identically distributed. For integer \(n…
We introduce a new approach to disordered two-dimensional Ising models based on the extension of the combinatorial solution to randomized supercells. Applying it to the site-diluted Ising model on the square lattice, we resolve the full…
A simple lemma bounds $\mathrm{s.d.}(T)/\mathbb{E} T$ for hitting times $T$ in Markov chains with a certain strong monotonicity property. We show how this lemma may be applied to several increasing set-valued processes. Our main result…
We consider the first passage percolation model on $\mathbf{Z}^2$. In this model, we assign independently to each edge $e$ a passage time $t(e)$ with a common distribution $F$. Let $T(u,v)$ be the passage time from $u$ to $v$. In this…
We study a symmetrized (half-space) version of geometric last passage percolation with a boundary parameter $c$ that interpolates between subcritical, critical, and supercritical behavior. This model gives rise to a family of interlacing…
In first-passage percolation, one places nonnegative i.i.d. random variables (T(e)) on the edges of Z^d. A geodesic is an optimal path for the passage times T(e). Consider a local property of the time environment. We call it a pattern. We…
Above two dimensions, diffusion of a particle in a medium with quenched random traps is believed to be well-described by the annealed continuous time random walk (CTRW). We propose an approximate expression for the first-passage-time (FPT)…

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…
