摘要

We consider the following long range percolation model: an undirected graph with the node set {0,1,...,N}d\{0,1,...,N\}^d, has edges (\x,\y)(\x,\y) selected with probability β/\x\ys\approx \beta/||\x-\y||^s if \x\y>1||\x-\y||>1, and with probability 1 if \x\y=1||\x-\y||=1, for some parameters β,s>0\beta,s>0. This model was introduced by Benjamini and Berger, who obtained bounds on the diameter of this graph for the one-dimensional case d=1d=1 and for various values of ss, but left cases s=1,2s=1,2 open. We show that, with high probability, the diameter of this graph is Θ(logN/loglogN)\Theta(\log N/\log\log N) when s=ds=d, and, for some constants 0<η1<η2<10<\eta_1<\eta_2<1, it is at most Nη2N^{\eta_2}, when s=2ds=2d and is at least Nη1N^{\eta_1} when d=1,s=2,β<1d=1,s=2,\beta<1 or s>2ds>2d. We also provide a simple proof that the diameter is at most logO(1)N\log^{O(1)}N with high probability, when d<s<2dd<s<2d, established previously by Berger and Benjamini.
