For ordinary (independent) percolation on a large class of lattices it is well known that below the critical percolation parameter $p_c$ the cluster size distribution has exponential decay and that power-law behavior of this distribution…
Suspensions of hard core spherical particles of diameter $D$ with inter-core connectivity range $\delta$ can be described in terms of random geometric graphs, where nodes represent the sphere centers and edges are assigned to any two…

We study phase transition and percolation at criticality for three random graph models on the plane, viz., the homogeneous and inhomogeneous enhanced random connection models (RCM) and the Poisson stick model. These models are built on a…
We prove that any $n$-node graph $G$ with diameter $D$ admits shortcuts with congestion $O(\delta D \log n)$ and dilation $O(\delta D)$, where $\delta$ is the maximum edge-density of any minor of $G$. Our proof is simple, elementary, and…
Descriptors that characterize the geometry and topology of the pore space of porous media are intimately linked to their transport properties. We quantify such descriptors, including pore-size functions and the critical pore radius…
We introduce a method to estimate continuum percolation thresholds and illustrate its usefulness by investigating geometric percolation of non-interacting line segments and disks in two spatial dimensions. These examples serve as models for…
Complex network theory crucially depends on the assumptions made about the degree distribution, while fitting degree distributions to network data is challenging, in particular for scale-free networks with power-law degrees. We present a…
The Constrained-degree percolation model was introduced in [B.N.B. de Lima, R. Sanchis, D.C. dos Santos, V. Sidoravicius, and R. Teodoro, Stoch. Process. Appl. (2020)], where it was proven that this model has a non-trivial phase transition…
We prove that the Poisson Boolean model, also known as the Gilbert disc model, is noise sensitive at criticality. This is the first such result for a Continuum Percolation model, and the first for which the critical probability p_c \ne 1/2.…
Neuroimaging data can be represented as networks of nodes and edges that capture the topological organization of the brain connectivity. Graph theory provides a general and powerful framework to study these networks and their structure at…
We analyze the critical connectivity of systems of penetrable $d$-dimensional spheres having size distributions in terms of weighed random geometrical graphs, in which vertex coordinates correspond to random positions of the sphere centers…
We investigate spatial random graphs defined on the points of a Poisson process in $d$-dimensional space, which combine scale-free degree distributions and long-range effects. Every Poisson point is assigned an independent weight. Given the…
We develop a cluster expansion for the probability of full connectivity of high density random networks in confined geometries. In contrast to percolation phenomena at lower densities, boundary effects, which have previously been largely…
It is known that the critical probability for the percolation transition is not a sharp threshold, actually it is a region of non-zero width $\Delta p_c$ for systems of finite size. Here we present evidence that for complex networks $\Delta…
We consider a continuum percolation model consisting of two types of nodes, namely legitimate and eavesdropper nodes, distributed according to independent Poisson point processes (PPPs) in $\bbR ^2$ of intensities $\lambda$ and $\lambda_E$…
In this communication with computer simulation we evaluate simple cubic random-site percolation thresholds for neighbourhoods including the nearest neighbours (NN), the next-nearest neighbours (2NN) and the next-next-nearest neighbours…
We extend the jigsaw percolation model to analyze graphs where both underlying people and puzzle graphs are Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs. Let $p_{\text{ppl}}$ and $p_{\text{puz}}$ denote the probability that an edge exists in the…
A new method for analyzing low density parity check (LDPC) codes and low density generator matrix (LDGM) codes under bit maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) decoding is introduced. The method is based on a rigorous approach to spin…
We introduce a method for translating any upper bound on the percolation threshold of a lattice $G$ into a lower bound on the exponential growth rate $a(G)$ of lattice animals and vice-versa. We exploit this in both directions. We improve…
