AbstractThis article is a short introduction to super-Brownian motion. Some of its properties are discussed but our main objective is to describe a number of limit theorems which show super-Brownian motion is a universal limit for rescaled spatial stochastic systems at criticality above a critical dimenson. These systems include the voter model, the contact process and critical oriented percolation.

In completely or partially oriented percolation models, a conceptually simple method, using barriers to enclose all open paths from the origin, improves the best previous lower bounds for the critical percolation probabilities.

We develop a technique for establishing statistical tests with precise confidence levels for upper bounds on the critical probability in oriented percolation. We use it to give pc < 0.647 with a 99.999967% confidence. As Monte Carlo simulations suggest that pc ≈ 0.6445, this bound is fairly tight.

We give upper bounds on the critical values for oriented percolation and some interacting particle systems by computing their behavior on small finite sets.
