Abstract In this paper we introduce and study a higher dimensional analogue of the giant component in continuum percolation. Using the language of algebraic topology, we define the notion of giant $k$-dimensional cycles (with $0$-cycles being connected components). Considering a continuum percolation model in the flat $d$-dimensional torus, we show that all the giant $k$-cycles ($1\le k \le d-1$) appear in the regime known as the thermodynamic limit. We also prove that the thresholds for the emergence of the giant $k$-cycles are increasing in $k$ and are tightly related to the critical values in continuum percolation. Finally, we provide bounds for the exponential decay of the probabilities of giant cycles appearing.

AbstractWe consider two cases of the so-called stick percolation model with sticks of length L. In the first case, the orientation is chosen independently and uniformly, while in the second all sticks are oriented along the same direction. We study their respective critical values $$\lambda _c(L)$$ λ c ( L ) of the percolation phase transition, and in particular we investigate the asymptotic behavior of $$\lambda _c(L)$$ λ c ( L ) as $$L\rightarrow \infty $$ L → ∞ for both of these cases. In the first case we prove that $$\lambda _c(L)\sim L^{-2}$$ λ c ( L ) ∼ L - 2 for any $$d\ge 2,$$ d ≥ 2 , while in the second we prove that $$\lambda _c(L)\sim L^{-1}$$ λ c ( L ) ∼ L - 1 for any $$d\ge 2.$$ d ≥ 2 .

AbstractGiven a matrix $A\in SL(N,\mathbb{Z})$, form the semidirect product $G=\mathbb{Z}^N\rtimes_A \mathbb{Z}$ where the $\mathbb{Z}$-factor acts on $\mathbb{Z}^N$ by $A$. Such a $G$ arises naturally as the fundamental group of an $N$-dimensional torus bundle which fibers over the circle. In this article, we prove that if $A$ has distinct eigenvalues not lying on the unit circle, then there exists a finite index subgroup $H\leq G$ possessing rational growth series for some generating set. In contrast, we show that if $A$ has at least one eigenvalue not lying on the unit circle, then $G$ is not almost convex for any generating set.

The Way

Consider a continuum percolation model in which, at each point of ad-dimensional Poisson process of rate λ, a ball of radius 1 is centred. We show that, for anyd≧ 3, there exists a phase where both the regions, occupied and vacant, contain unbounded components. The proof uses the concept of enhancement for the Boolean model, and along the way we prove that the critical intensity of a Boolean model defined on a slab is strictly larger than the critical intensity of a Boolean model defined on the whole space.

Topological Version

We study a topological version of the T-duality relation between pairs consisting of a principal U(1)-bundle equipped with a degree-three integral cohomology class. We describe the homotopy type of a classifying space for such pairs and show that it admits a selfmap which implements a T-duality transformation. We give a simple derivation of a T-duality isomorphism for certain twisted cohomology theories. We conclude with some explicit computations of twisted K-theory groups and discuss an example of iterated T-duality for higher-dimensional torus bundles.

In this article we will expose a connection between critical values of percolation and Ising model, i.e., the percolation threshold pc, and the critical temperature Tc and energy Ec, respectively, by the approximation [Formula: see text]. For the two-dimensional square lattice even the identity holds. For higher dimensions — up to d = 7 — and other lattice types we find remarkably small differences from one to five percent.

Given ω ≥ 1, let $\Z^2_{(\omega)}$ be the graph with vertex set $\Z^2$ in which two vertices are joined if they agree in one coordinate and differ by at most ω in the other. (Thus $\Z^2_{(1)}$ is precisely $\Z^2$.) Let pc(ω) be the critical probability for site percolation on $\Z^2_{(\omega)}$. Extending recent results of Frieze, Kleinberg, Ravi and Debany, we show that limω→∞ωpc(ω)=log(3/2). We also prove analogues of this result for the n-by-n grid and in higher dimensions, the latter involving interesting connections to Gilbert's continuum percolation model. To prove our results, we explore the component of the origin in a certain non-standard way, and show that this exploration is well approximated by a certain branching random walk.

Rooted Forest

For a graph $G$, the generating function of rooted forests, counted by the number of connected components, can be expressed in terms of the eigenvalues of the graph Laplacian. We generalize this result from graphs to cell complexes of arbitrary dimension. This requires generalizing the notion of rooted forest to higher dimension. We also introduce orientations of higher dimensional rooted trees and forests. These orientations are discrete vector fields which lead to open questions concerning expressing homological quantities combinatorially.
