We compute the first three terms of the 1/d expansions for the growth constants and one-point functions of nearest-neighbour lattice trees and lattice (bond) animals on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, with rigorous error estimates. The proof uses the lace expansion, together with a new expansion for the one-point functions based on inclusion–exclusion.

AbstractWe study lattice trees (LTs) and animals (LAs) on the nearest-neighbor lattice $${\mathbb {Z}}^d$$ Z d in high dimensions. We prove that LTs and LAs display mean-field behavior above dimension $$16$$ 16 and $$17$$ 17 , respectively. Such results have previously been obtained by Hara and Slade in sufficiently high dimensions. The dimension above which their results apply was not yet specified. We rely on the non-backtracking lace expansion (NoBLE) method that we have recently developed. The NoBLE makes use of an alternative lace expansion for LAs and LTs that perturbs around non-backtracking random walk rather than around simple random walk, leading to smaller corrections. The NoBLE method then provides a careful computational analysis that improves the dimension above which the result applies. Universality arguments predict that the upper critical dimension, above which our results apply, is equal to $$d_c=8$$ d c = 8 for both models, as is known for sufficiently spread-out models by the results of Hara and Slade mentioned earlier. The main ingredients in this paper are (a) a derivation of a non-backtracking lace expansion for the LT and LA two-point functions; (b) bounds on the non-backtracking lace-expansion coefficients, thus showing that our general NoBLE methodology can be applied; and (c) sharp numerical bounds on the coefficients. Our proof is complemented by a computer-assisted numerical analysis that verifies that the necessary bounds used in the NoBLE are satisfied.

AbstractThis article discusses our recent proof that above eight dimensions the scaling limit of sufficiently spread-out lattice trees is the variant of super-Brownian motion calledintegrated super-Brownian excursion(ISE), as conjectured by Aldous. The same is true for nearest-neighbour lattice trees in sufficiently high dimensions. The proof, whose details will appear elsewhere, uses the lace expansion. Here, a related but simpler analysis is applied to show that the scaling limit of a mean-field theory is ISE, in all dimensions. A connection is drawn between ISE and certain generating functions and critical exponents, which may be useful for the study of high-dimensional percolation models at the critical point.
