High-density (HD) percolation describes the percolation over specific $\kappa$ -clusters, which are the compact sets of sites each connected to $\kappa$ nearest filled sites at least. It takes place in the classical patterns of…

We analyse the density of states of the random graph Laplacian in the percolating regime. A symmetry argument and knowledge of the density of states in the nonpercolating regime allows us to isolate the density of states of the percolating…

The enumeration of independent sets of regular graphs is of interest in statistical mechanics, as it corresponds to the solution of hard-particle models. In 2004, it was conjectured by Fendleyet al. that for some rectangular grids, with…

Bootstrap percolation is a prominent framework for studying the spreading of activity on a graph. We begin with an initial set of active vertices. The process then proceeds in rounds, and further vertices become active as soon as they have…

Learning causal relations from observational data is a fundamental problem with wide-ranging applications across many fields. Constraint-based methods infer the underlying causal structure by performing conditional independence tests.…

While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…

We present a comprehensive and versatile theoretical framework to study site and bond percolation on clustered and correlated random graphs. Our contribution can be summarized in three main points. (i) We introduce a set of iterative…

Bootstrap percolation has been used effectively to model phenomena as diverse as emergence of magnetism in materials, spread of infection, diffusion of software viruses in computer networks, adoption of new technologies, and emergence of…

We consider $Z^d$, with d bigger or equal to three. We investigate the vacant set of random interlacements in the strongly percolative regime, the vacant set of the simple random walk, and the excursion set above a given level of the…

We define a graph process $\mathcal{G}(p,q)$ based on a discrete branching process with deletions and mergers, which is inspired by the 4-cycle structure of both the hypercube $Q_d$ and the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for large $d$. Individuals…

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…

To identify emerging microscopic structures in low temperature spin glasses, we study self-sustained clusters (SSC) in spin models defined on sparse random graphs. A message-passing algorithm is developed to determine the probability of…

Computing the maximum size of an independent set in a graph is a famously hard combinatorial problem that has been well-studied for various classes of graphs. When it comes to random graphs, only the classical Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi-Gilbert…

We find evidence for a continuum limit of a particular causal set dynamics which depends on only a single ``coupling constant'' $p$ and is easy to simulate on a computer. The model in question is a stochastic process that can also be…
