We investigate paths in the hexagonal circle packing and enumerate them with respect to width, height, number of steps, area, and kissing number. Functional equations and the kernel method yield closed bivariate generating functions…
The average number $S_N(t)$ of distinct sites visited up to time t by N noninteracting random walkers all starting from the same origin in a disordered fractal is considered. This quantity $S_N(t)$ is the result of a double average: an…

We consider bond percolation on $\Z^d\times \Z^s$ where edges of $\Z^d$ are open with probability $p<p_c(\Z^d)$ and edges of $\Z^s$ are open with probability $q$, independently of all others. We obtain bounds for the critical curve in $(p,…

We report the recent derivation of the backbone exponent for 2D percolation. In contrast to previously known exactly solved percolation exponents, the backbone exponent is a transcendental number, which is a root of an elementary equation.…
We consider supercritical long-range percolation on transitive graphs of polynomial growth. In this model, any two vertices $x$ and $y$ of the underlying graph $G$ connect by a direct edge with probability $1-\exp(-\beta J(x,y))$, where…
It is shown how twisted N=2 (k=1) provides for the first time a complete conformal field theory description of the usual geometrical phase transitions in two dimensions, like polymers, percolation or brownian motion. In particular, four…
The rigidity transition occurs when, as the density of microscopic components is increased, a disordered medium becomes able to transmit and ensure macroscopic mechanical stability, owing to the appearance of a space-spanning rigid…
We have studied the percolation behaviour of deposits for different (2+1)-dimensional models of surface layer formation. The mixed model of deposition was used, where particles were deposited selectively according to the random (RD) and…
We present a Monte Carlo study of the bond and site directed (oriented) percolation models in $(d+1)$ dimensions on simple-cubic and body-centered-cubic lattices, with $2 \leq d \leq 7$. A dimensionless ratio is defined, and an analysis of…
The properties of the similarity transformation in percolation theory in the complex plane of the percolation probability are studied. It is shown that the percolation problem on a two-dimensional square lattice reduces to the Mandelbrot…
Discretized landscapes can be mapped onto ranked surfaces, where every element (site or bond) has a unique rank associated with its corresponding relative height. By sequentially allocating these elements according to their ranks and…
The aim of these notes is to give a quick introduction to FK-percolation, focusing on certain recent results about the phase transition of the two dimensional model, namely its continuity or discontinuity depending on the cluster weight…
A linear copolymer made of two reciprocally attracting N-monomer blocks collapses to a compact phase through a novel transition, whose exponents are determined with extensive MC simulations in two and three dimensions. In the former case,…

We consider the density at a point z = x + i y of critical percolation clusters that touch the left [P_L(z)], right [P_R(z)], or both [P_{LR}(z)] sides of a rectangular system, with open boundary conditions on the top and bottom. The ratio…
The probability that the cluster of the origin in critical site percolation on the triangular grid has diameter larger than $R$ is proved to decay like $R^{-5/48}$ as $R\to\infty$.
