Consider an independent site percolation model on Zd, with parameter p ∈ (0, 1), where all long-range connections in the axis directions are allowed. In this work we show that, given any parameter p, there exists an integer K(p) such that all binary sequences (words) ξ ∈ {0, 1}N can be seen simultaneously, almost surely, even if all connections with length larger than K(p) are suppressed. We also show some results concerning how K(p) should scale with p as p goes to 0. Related results are also obtained for the question of whether or not almost all words are seen.

AbstractIn Bernoulli site percolation on Penrose tilings there are two natural definitions of the critical probability. This paper shows that they are equal on almost all Penrose tilings. It also shows that for almost all Penrose tilings the number of infinite clusters is almost surely 0 or 1. The results generalize to percolation on a large class of aperiodic tilings in arbitrary dimension, to percolation on ergodic subgraphs of ℤd, and to other percolation processes, including Bernoulli bond percolation.

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.
