We consider a preferential growth model where particles are added one by one to the system consisting of clusters of particles. A new particle can either form a new cluster (with probability q) or join an already existing cluster with a…

We prove that, in the FK-percolation model, the probabilities of local events are uniformly analytic in the percolation parameter $p$ under suitable mixing assumptions on the measure, and satisfy a uniform exponential growth bound. This…

We investigate the behavior of large connected components in the Poisson Random Connection model in non-critical regimes with any bounded connection function. We show that the asymptotic size of the largest component restricted to a window…

The development of percolation theory was historically shaped by its numerous applications in various branches of science, in particular in statistical physics, and was mainly constrained to the case of Euclidean spaces. One of its central…

We study infinite ``$+$'' or ``$-$'' clusters for an Ising model on an connected, transitive, non-amenable, planar, one-ended graph $G$ with finite vertex degree. If the critical percolation probability $p_c^{site}$ for the i.i.d.~Bernoulli…

We consider the scaling behavior of directed percolation and of the pair contact process with a conjugated field. In particular we determine numerically the equation of state and show that both models are characterized by the same universal…

We consider the percolation problem of sites on an $L\times L$ square lattice with periodic boundary conditions which were unvisited by a random walk of $N=uL^2$ steps, i.e. are vacant. Most of the results are obtained from numerical…

The nature of equilibrium states in disordered materials is often studied using an overlap function P(q), the probability of two configurations having similarity q. Exact sampling simulations of a two-dimensional proxy for three-dimensional…

The percolation properties of clustered networks are analyzed in detail. In the case of weak clustering, we present an analytical approach that allows to find the critical threshold and the size of the giant component. Numerical simulations…

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…

A new approach for the description of phenomena of social aggregation is suggested. On the basis of psychological concepts (as for instance social norms and cultural coordinates), we deduce a general mechanism for the social aggregation in…
