We consider first passage percolation on the Erd\H{o}s--R\'{e}nyi graph with $n$ vertices in which each pair of distinct vertices is connected independently by an edge with probability $\lambda/n$ for some $\lambda>1$. The edges of the…

In this paper we consider first passage percolation on the square lattice \(\mathbb{Z}^d\) with passage times that are independent and have bounded \(p^{th}\) moment for some \(p > 6(1+d),\) but not necessarily identically distributed. For…

We investigate performance of approximations put forth in \citeNP{[Malinovskii 2017a]} and \citeNP{[Malinovskii 2017b]} for the distribution of the time of first level $u$ crossing by the random process $\homV{s}-cs$, $s>0$, where…

We study moderate deviations in the exponential corner growth model, both in the bulk setting and the increment-stationary setting. The main results are sharp right-tail bounds on the last-passage time and the exit point of the…

We prove that, the diffusivity and conductivity on $\mathbb{Z}^d$-Bernoulli percolation ($d \geq 2$) are infinitely differentiable in supercritical regime. This extends a result by Kozlov [Uspekhi Mat. Nauk 44 (1989), no. 2(266), pp 79 -…

Initially motivated by the study of the non-asymptotic properties of non-parametric tests based on permutation methods, concentration inequalities for uniformly permuted sums have been largely studied in the literature. Recently, Delyon et…

First-passage times are often the most relevant aspect of a complex Markovian network, because they signify when information processing has resulted in a definite decision. Previous studies have shown that for kinetic proofreading networks…

We consider a first-passage percolation model on a Delaunay triangulation of the plane. In this model each edge is independently equipped with a nonnegative random variable, with distribution function F, which is interpreted as the time it…

We consider constrained-degree percolation on the hypercubic lattice. Initially, all edges are closed, and each edge independently attempts to open at a uniformly distributed random time; the attempt succeeds if, at that instant, both…
