We prove Schramm's locality conjecture for Bernoulli bond percolation on transitive graphs: If $(G_n)_{n\geq 1}$ is a sequence of infinite vertex-transitive graphs converging locally to a vertex-transitive graph $G$ and $p_c(G_n) \neq 1$…

The stochastic addition of either vertices or connections in a network leads to the observation of the percolation transition, a structural change with the appearance of a connected component encompassing a finite fraction of the system.…

Bootstrap percolation is an often used model to study the spread of diseases, rumors, and information on sparse random graphs. The percolation process demonstrates a critical value such that the graph is either almost completely affected or…

We consider changes in properties of a subgraph of an infinite graph resulting from the addition of open edges of Bernoulli percolation on the infinite graph to the subgraph. We give the triplet of an infinite graph, one of its subgraphs,…

Percolation is perhaps the simplest example of a process exhibiting a phase transition and one of the most studied phenomena in statistical physics. The percolation transition is continuous if sites/bonds are occupied independently with the…

Global physical properties of random media change qualitatively at a percolation threshold, where isolated clusters merge to form one infinite connected component. The precise knowledge of percolation thresholds is thus of paramount…

We consider a recently introduced model of color-avoiding percolation defined as follows. Every edge in a graph $G$ is colored in some of $k\ge 2$ colors. Two vertices $u$ and $v$ in $G$ are said to be CA-connected if $u$ and $v$ may be…

We investigate percolation on growing networks where the evolution of connected components resembles a non-equilibrium version of the multiplicative coalescent. The supercritical $\pi> \pi_c$ regime for a host of such models was conjectured…

Consider an infinite, rooted, connected graph where each vertex is labelled with an independent and identically distributed Uniform(0,1) random variable, plus a parameter $\theta$ times its distance from the root $\rho$. That is, we label…

A bootstrap percolation process on a graph with infection threshold $r\ge 1$ is a dissemination process that evolves in time steps. The process begins with a subset of infected vertices and in each subsequent step every uninfected vertex…

False-vacuum eternal inflation can be described as a random walk on the network of vacua of the string landscape. In this paper we show that the problem can be mapped naturally to a problem of directed percolation. The mapping relies on two…

There is still much to discover about the mechanisms and nature of discontinuous percolation transitions. Much of the past work considers graph evolution algorithms known as Achlioptas processes in which a single edge is added to the graph…

Jigsaw percolation is a model for the process of solving puzzles within a social network, which was recently proposed by Brummitt, Chatterjee, Dey and Sivakoff. In the model there are two graphs on a single vertex set (the `people' graph…

We introduce a new oriented evolving graph model inspired by biological networks. A node is added at each time step and is connected to the rest of the graph by random oriented edges emerging from older nodes. This leads to a statistical…

In $H$-percolation, we start with an Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ and then iteratively add edges that complete copies of $H$. The process percolates if all edges missing from ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ are eventually added. We…

Bootstrap percolation is a well-known activation process in a graph, in which a node becomes active when it has at least $r$ active neighbors. Such process, originally studied on regular structures, has been recently investigated also in…

Bond percolation on infinite heavy-tailed power-law random networks lacks a proper phase transition; or one may say, there is a phase transition at {\em zero percolation probability}. Nevertheless, a finite size percolation threshold…
