چکیده

A comprehensive study of percolation in a more general context than the usual Z d setting is proposed, with particular focus on Cayley graphs, almost transitive graphs, and planar graphs. Results concerning uniqueness of innnite clusters and inequalities for the critical value p c are given, and a simple planar example exhibiting uniqueness and non-uniqueness for diierent p > p c is analyzed. Numerous varied conjectures and problems are proposed, with the hope of setting goals for future research in percolation theory.

Percolation beyond Zz, Many Questions and a Few Answers

A comprehensive study of percolation in a more general context than the usual Z d setting is proposed, with particular focus on Cayley graphs, almost transitive graphs, and planar graphs. Results concerning uniqueness of infinite clusters and inequalities for the critical value pc are given, and a simple planar example exhibiting uniqueness and non-uniqueness for different p > pc is analyzed. N...

Five Answers on Pragmatism

Prof. Haack answers a series of questions on pragmatism, beginning with the origins of this tradition in the work of Peirce and James, its evolution in the work of Dewey and Mead, and its influence beyond the United States in, for example, the Italian pragmatists and the radical British pragmatist F. C. S. Schiller. Classical pragmatism, she observes, is a rich and varied tradition from which t...

Percolation beyond Z d : the contributions of Oded Schramm ∗

Oded Schramm (1961–2008) influenced greatly the development of percolation theory beyond the usual Z setting, in particular the case of nonamenable lattices. Here we review some of his work in this field.

Subcritical U-bootstrap Percolation Models Have Non-trivial Phase Transitions

We prove that there exist natural generalizations of the classical bootstrap percolation model on Z that have non-trivial critical probabilities, and moreover we characterize all homogeneous, local, monotone models with this property. Van Enter [28] (in the case d = r = 2) and Schonmann [25] (for all d > r > 2) proved that r-neighbour bootstrap percolation models have trivial critical probabili...

Energy of Ows on Z 2 Percolation Clusters

Grimmett, Kesten, and Zhang (1993) showed that for d 3 and p > p c (Z d) simple random walk on the innnite percolation cluster on Z d is a.s. transient. This is equivalent to the existence of a ow of nite energy on the innnite cluster. Benjamini, Pemantle, and Peres (1998) gave an alternate proof of this result. Levin and Peres adapted the approach of Benjamini, Pemantle, and Peres to show that...
