Let $E$ be the set of edges of the $d$-dimensional cubic lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, with $d\geq2$, and let $t(e),e\in E$, be nonnegative values. The passage time from a vertex $v$ to a vertex $w$ is defined as $\inf_{\pi:v\rightarrow…
We study first-passage percolation on $\mathbb Z^d$, $d\ge 2$, with independent weights whose common distribution is compactly supported in $(0,\infty)$ with a uniformly-positive density. Given $\epsilon>0$ and $v\in\mathbb Z^d$, which…
We study first-passage percolation where edges in the left and right half-planes are assigned values according to different distributions. We show that the asymptotic growth of the resulting inhomogeneous first-passage process obeys a shape…
We consider the following oriented percolation model of $\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb{Z}^d$: we equip $\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb{Z}^d$ with the edge set $\{[(n,x),(n+1,y)] | n\in \mathbb {N}, x,y\in \mathbb{Z}^d\}$, and we say that each edge…
Consider (independent) first-passage percolation on the sites of the triangular lattice $\mathbb{T}$. Denote the passage time of the site $v$ in $\mathbb{T}$ by $t(v)$, and assume that $P(t(v)=0)=P(t(v)=1)=1/2$. Denote by $b_{0,n}$ the…
One model of real-life spreading processes is First Passage Percolation (also called SI model) on random graphs. Social interactions often follow bursty patterns, which are usually modelled with i.i.d.~heavy-tailed passage times on edges.…
We study line ensembles arising naturally in symmetrized/half-space geometric last passage percolation (LPP) on the $N \times N$ square. The weights of the model are geometrically distributed with parameter $q^2$ off the diagonal and $cq$…
We consider first passage percolation on certain isotropic random graphs in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We assume exponential concentration of passage times $T(x,y)$, on some scale $\sigma_r$ whenever $|y-x|$ is of order $r$, with $\sigma_r$ "growning…
In this paper we explore first passage percolation (FPP) on the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G_n(p_n)$, where each edge is given an independent exponential edge weight with rate 1. In the sparse regime, i.e., when $np_n\to \lambda>1,$ we…
In this paper, we study some properties of optimal paths in the first passage percolation on $\Z^d$ and show the followings: (1) the number of optimal paths has an exponential growth if the distribution has an atom; (2) the means of…
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…
On the $Z^2$ lattice, vertices are assigned random weights $W(i,j)$. The point-to-point last passage percolation (LPP) time $S_{M,N+1-M}$ between $(1,1)$ and $(M,N+1-M)$ is the maximum total weight among all upward/right-oriented paths…
We study the random geometry of first passage percolation on the complete graph equipped with independent and identically distributed edge weights, continuing the program initiated by Bhamidi and van der Hofstad [6]. We describe our results…
We study the probability distribution $P(A)$ of the area $A=\int_0^T x(t) dt$ swept under fractional Brownian motion (fB\ m) $x(t)$ until its first passage time $T$ to the origin. The process starts at $t=0$ from a specified point $x=L$. We…
