False-vacuum eternal inflation can be described as a random walk on the network of vacua of the string landscape. In this paper we show that the problem can be mapped naturally to a problem of directed percolation. The mapping relies on two…
We study the two most common types of percolation process on a sparse random graph with a given degree sequence. Namely, we examine first a bond percolation process where the edges of the graph are retained with probability p and afterwards…
We consider $Z^d$, with d bigger or equal to three. We investigate the vacant set of random interlacements in the strongly percolative regime, the vacant set of the simple random walk, and the excursion set above a given level of the…
We study the size of the near-critical window for Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb Z^d$. More precisely, we use a quantitative Grimmett-Marstrand theorem to prove that the correlation length, both below and above criticality, is bounded…
We prove that nearest-neighbor percolation in dimensions $d\geq 11$ displays mean-field behavior by proving that the infrared bound holds, in turn implying the finiteness of the percolation triangle diagram. The finiteness of the triangle…
By bootstrap percolation we mean the following deterministic process on a graph $G$. Given a set $A$ of vertices "infected" at time 0, new vertices are subsequently infected, at each time step, if they have at least $r\in\mathbb{N}$…
We show that for all $d\in \{3,\ldots,n-1\}$ the size of the largest component of a random $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices around the percolation threshold $p=1/(d-1)$ is $\Theta(n^{2/3})$, with high probability. This extends known…
In this paper we will consider the contact process in a very simple type of random environment that physicists call the random dilution model. We start with the contact process on a graph, here either $\mathbb{Z}^d$, a $d$-dimensional torus…
Letting $\mathcal{M}$ denote the space of finite measures on $\mathbb{N}$, and $\mu_\lambda\in\mathcal{M}$ denote the Poisson distribution with parameter $\lambda$, the function $W:[0,1]^2\to\mathcal{M}$ given by \[ W(x,y)=\mu_{c\log x\log…

Percolation on a five-dimensional simple hypercubic (sc(5)) lattice with extended neighborhoods is investigated by means of extensive Monte Carlo simulations, using an effective single-cluster growth algorithm. The critical exponents,…
We consider the standard site percolation model on the $d$-dimensional lattice. A direct consequence of the proof of the uniqueness of the infinite cluster of Aizenman, Kesten and Newman [Comm. Math. Phys. 111 (1987) 505-531] is that the…
The distance of a graph from being triangle-free is a fundamental graph parameter, counting the number of edges that need to be removed from a graph in order for it to become triangle-free. Its corresponding computational problem is the…
We study equilibrium statistical mechanics of classical point counter-ions, formulated on 2D Euclidean space with logarithmic Coulomb interactions (infinite number of particles) or on the cylinder surface (finite particle numbers), in the…
Given an $n \times d$ dimensional dataset $A$, a projection query specifies a subset $C \subseteq [d]$ of columns which yields a new $n \times |C|$ array. We study the space complexity of computing data analysis functions over such…
By means of numerical simulations we investigate the geometric properties of loops on hypercubic lattice graphs in dimensions d=2 through 7, where edge weights are drawn from a distribution that allows for positive and negative weights. We…

This work discusses the homogenization analysis for diffusion processes on scale-free metric graphs, using weak variational formulations. The oscillations of the diffusion coefficient along the edges of a metric graph induce internal…
We prove optimal convergence rates for eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the graph Laplacian on Poisson point clouds. Our results are valid down to the critical percolation threshold, yielding error estimates for relatively sparse graphs.
We consider a Poisson point process on the space of lines in R^d, where a multiplicative factor u>0 of the intensity measure determines the density of lines. Each line in the process is taken as the axis of a bi-infinite cylinder of radius…
