First-passage percolation is a random growth model defined on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ using i.i.d. nonnegative weights $(\tau_e)$ on the edges. Letting $T(x,y)$ be the distance between vertices $x$ and $y$ induced by the weights, we study the random…
This paper concerns maximal flows on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ traveling from a convex set to infinity, the flows being restricted by a random capacity. For every compact convex set $A$, we prove that the maximal flow $\Phi(nA)$ between $nA$ and…
Consider a uniform expanders family G_n with a uniform bound on the degrees. It is shown that for any p and c>0, a random subgraph of G_n obtained by retaining each edge, randomly and independently, with probability p, will have at most one…
We consider the first-passage percolation problem on effectively one-dimensional graphs with vertex set {1,...,n}\times{0,1} and translation-invariant edge-structure. For three of six non-trivial cases we obtain exact expressions for the…
Let a random geometric graph be defined in the supercritical regime for the existence of a unique infinite connected component in Euclidean space. Consider the first-passage percolation model with independent and identically distributed…
We celebrate the 50th anniversary of one the most classical models in probability theory. In this survey, we describe the main results of first passage percolation, paying special attention to the recent burst of advances of the past 5…
In this paper we establish a strong decoupling inequality for the cylinder's percolation process introduced by Tykesson and Windisch in arXiv:1010.5338 . This model features a very strong dependency structure, making it difficult to study,…
We consider first-passage percolation on the class of "high-dimensional" graphs that can be written as an iterated Cartesian product $G\square G \square \dots \square G$ of some base graph $G$ as the number of factors tends to infinity. We…
We independently assign a non-negative value, as a capacity for the quantity of flows per unit time, with a distribution F to each edge on the Z^d lattice. We consider the maximum flows through the edges of two disjoint sets, that is from a…
We consider the standard first passage percolation model on $\mathbb Z^d$ with bounded and bounded away from zero weights. We show that the rescaled passage time $\widetilde{\mathbf T}_{n,X}$ restricted to a compact set $X$ satisfies a…
We construct new examples of cylinder flows, given by skew product extensions of irrational rotations on the circle, that are ergodic and rationally ergodic along a subsequence of iterates. In particular, they exhibit law of large numbers.…
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…
We consider the standard model of first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\geq 2$), with i.i.d. passage times associated with either the edges or the vertices of the graph. We focus on the particular case where the distribution of…
In 1999, Zhang proved that, for first passage percolation on the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. non-negative edge weights, if the probability that the passage time distribution of an edge $P(t_e = 0) =1/2 $, the critical value…
A law of the iterated logarithm is established for the last passage times of directed percolation on rectangles in the plane over exponential or geometric independent random variables, rescaled to converge to the Tracy-Widom distribution.…
We establish the scaling limit of the geodesics to the root for the first passage percolation distance on random planar maps. We first describe the scaling limit of the number of faces along the geodesics. This result enables us to compare…
We consider the first passage percolation model on the ${\bf Z}^d$ lattice. In this model, we assign independently to each edge $e$ a non-negative passage time $t(e)$ with a common distribution $F$. Let $a_{0,n}$ be the passage time from…
We study a version of first passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ where the random passage times on the edges are replaced by contact times represented by random closed sets on $\mathbb{R}$. Similarly to the contact process without…
The percolation threshold for flow or conduction through voids surrounding randomly placed spheres is rigorously calculated. With large scale Monte Carlo simulations, we give a rigorous continuum treatment to the geometry of the…
Percolation is a concept widely used in many fields of research and refers to the propagation of substances through porous media (e.g., coffee filtering), or the behaviour of complex networks (e.g., spreading of diseases). Percolation…
