In this paper, we consider the problem of linear regression with heavy-tailed distributions. Different from previous studies that use the squared loss to measure the performance, we choose the absolute loss, which is capable of estimating…

We investigate the following vertex percolation process. Starting with a random regular graph of constant degree, delete each vertex independently with probability p, where p=n^{-alpha} and alpha=alpha(n) is bounded away from 0. We show…

We derive a sufficient condition for the existence of a subcritical percolation phase for a wide range of continuum percolation models where each vertex is embedded into Euclidean space according to an iid-marked stationary Poisson point…

We determine thresholds $p_c$ for random site percolation on a triangular lattice for neighbourhoods containing nearest (NN), next-nearest (2NN), next-next-nearest (3NN), next-next-next-nearest (4NN) and next-next-next-next-nearest (5NN)…

We locate the critical threshold $p_c$ at which it becomes likely that the complete graph $K_n$ can be obtained from the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph ${\cal G}_{n,p}$ by iteratively completing copies of $K_4$ minus an edge. This refines work of…

We describe the critical window for percolation in the universality class of sparse growing random graphs. In our models, vertices arrive sequentially and connect independently to each earlier vertex $v$ with probability proportional to a…

We consider inhomogeneous non-oriented Bernoulli bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, where each edge has a parameter depending on its direction. We prove that, under certain conditions, if the sum of the parameters is strictly greater than…

We derive the critical nearest-neighbor connectivity $g_n$ as $3/4$, $3(7-9p_c^{tri})/[4(5-4p_c^{tri})]$, and $3(2+7p_c^{tri})/[4(5-p_c^{tri})]$ for bond percolation on the square, honeycomb and triangular lattice respectively, where…

Following the recent investigations of Baik and Suidan in \cite{baik2005gcl} and Bodineau and Martin in \cite{bodineau2005upl}, we prove large deviation properties for a last-passage percolation model in $\mathbb{Z}^{2}_{+}$ whose paths are…

The well-known "Janson's inequality" gives Poisson-like upper bounds for the lower tail probability \Pr(X \le (1-\eps)\E X) when X is the sum of dependent indicator random variables of a special form. We show that, for large deviations,…

In 1999, Zhang proved that, for first passage percolation on the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. non-negative edge weights, if the probability that the passage time distribution of an edge $P(t_e = 0) =1/2 $, the critical value…
