We study some percolation problems on the complete graph over $\mathbf N$. In particular, we give sharp sufficient conditions for the existence of (finite or infinite) cliques and paths in a random subgraph. No specific assumption on the…
This article presents a method for finding the critical probability $p_c$ for the Bernoulli bond percolation on graphs with the so-called tree-like structure. Such a graph can be decomposed into a tree of pieces, each of which has finitely…
Hermon and Hutchcroft have recently proved the long-standing conjecture that in Bernoulli(p) bond percolation on any nonamenable transitive graph G, at any p > p_c(G), the probability that the cluster of the origin is finite but has a large…
We describe the component sizes in critical independent p-bond percolation on a random d-regular graph on n vertices, where d \geq 3 is fixed and n grows. We prove mean-field behavior around the critical probability p_c=1/(d-1). In…
We consider the standard model of i.i.d. bond percolation on $\mathbb Z^d$ of parameter $p$. When $p>p_c$, there exists almost surely a unique infinite cluster $\mathcal C_p$. Using the recent techniques of Cerf and Dembin, we prove that…
We consider Bernoulli percolation on transitive graphs of polynomial growth. In the subcritical regime ($p<p_c$), it is well known that the connection probabilities decay exponentially fast. In the present paper, we study the supercritical…
We study Bernoulli bond percolation on nonunimodular quasi-transitive graphs, and more generally graphs whose automorphism group has a nonunimodular quasi-transitive subgroup. We prove that percolation on any such graph has a non-empty…
In their seminal paper introducing the theory of random graphs, Erd\H{o}s and R\'{e}nyi considered the evolution of the structure of a random subgraph of $K_n$ as the density increases from $0$ to $1$, identifying two key points in this…
Given a graph $G$, we consider a model for a random cover of $G$ by taking two parallel copies of $G$ and crossing every pair of parallel edges randomly with probability $q$ independently of each other. The resulting graph $G_q$, is a…
For critical bond-percolation on high-dimensional torus, this paper proves sharp lower bounds on the size of the largest cluster, removing a logarithmic correction in the lower bound in Heydenreich and van der Hofstad (2007). This…
Motivated by network resilience and insurance premiums in the context of cyber security, we derive universal upper bounds for the first and second moments of the size of bond percolation clusters on finite regular graphs. Thinking of the…
Several results are presented for site percolation on quasi-transitive, planar graphs $G$ with one end, when properly embedded in either the Euclidean or hyperbolic plane. If $(G_1,G_2)$ is a matching pair derived from some quasi-transitive…
We describe a probabilistic methodology, based on random walk estimates, to obtain exponential upper bounds for the probability of observing unusually small maximal components in two classical (near-)critical random graph models. More…
We give an example of a long range Bernoulli percolation process on a group non-quasi-isometric with $\mathbb{Z}$, in which clusters are almost surely finite for all values of the parameter. This random graph admits diverse equivalent…
In Bernoulli bond percolation on the Cartesian product graph of a $d$-regular tree and a line, we give an upper bound for the critical probability $p_c$.
Let G be a planar graph with polynomial growth and isoperimetric dimension bigger than 1. Then the critical p for Bernoulli percolation on G satisfies p<1.
In this paper, we study the order of the largest connected component of a random graph having two sources of randomness: first, the graph is chosen randomly from all graphs with a given degree sequence, and then bond percolation is applied.…
We show that for any Cayley graph, the probability (at any $p$) that the cluster of the origin has size n decays at a well-defined exponential rate (possibly 0). For general graphs, we relate this rate being positive in the supercritical…
Let $d\geq 2$. We consider an i.i.d. supercritical bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, every edge is open with a probability $p>p_c(d)$, where $p_c(d)$ denotes the critical point. We condition on the event that $0$ belongs to the infinite…
We give several algebraic bounds for percolation on directed and undirected graphs: proliferation of strongly-connected clusters, proliferation of in- and out-clusters, and the transition associated with the number of giant components.
