We study limit laws for simple random walks on supercritical long-range percolation clusters on the integer lattice. For the long range percolation model, the probability that two vertices are connected behaves asymptotically as a negative…
We consider self-avoiding walks (SAWs) on the backbone of percolation clusters in space dimensions d=2, 3, 4. Applying numerical simulations, we show that the whole multifractal spectrum of singularities emerges in exploring the…
We consider a type of dependent percolation introduced by Aizenman and Grimmett, who showed that certain "enhancements" of independent (Bernoulli) percolation, called essential, make the percolation critical probability strictly smaller. In…
This work extends the universal finite-size scaling framework for continuum percolation from two-dimensional (2D) to quasi-three-dimensional (Q3D) stick systems, in which sequentially deposited wires of finite diameter stack vertically on a…
We investigate the formation of an infinite cluster of entangled threads in a (2+1)-dimensional system. We demonstrate that topological percolation belongs to the universality class of the standard 2D bond percolation. We compute the…

This is an introductory account of the emergence of conformal invariance in the scaling limit of planar critical percolation. We give an exposition of Smirnov's theorem (2001) on the conformal invariance of crossing probabilities in site…
In critical percolation models, in a large cube there will typically be more than one cluster of comparable diameter. In 2D, the probability of $k>>1$ spanning clusters is of the order $e^{-\alpha k^{2}}$. In dimensions d>6, when $\eta = 0$…
Recently, Holmes and Perkins identified conditions which ensure that for a class of critical lattice models the scaling limit of the range is the range of super-Brownian motion. One of their conditions is an estimate on a spatial moment of…
A lattice-based model for continuum percolation is applied to the case of randomly located, partially aligned sticks with unequal lengths in 2D which are allowed to cross each other. Results are obtained for the critical number of sticks…

A set of discrete individual points located in an embedding continuum space can be seen as percolating or non-percolating, depending on the radius of the discs/spheres associated with each of them. This problem is relevant in theoretical…

We consider Bernoulli first-passage percolation on the triangular lattice in which sites have 0 and 1 passage times with probability $p$ and $1-p$, respectively. For each $p\in(0,p_c)$, let $\mathcal {B}(p)$ be the limit shape in the…
We consider several aspects of the scaling limit of percolation on random planar triangulations, both finite and infinite. The equivalents for random maps of Cardy's formula for the limit under scaling of various crossing probabilities are…
