Percolative process distribution not equivalent to coupon collector problem distribution
I have a process where; given a $n\times 1$ matrix initially empty, an element is inserted in it at a random position, with the possibility of repeating the insertion at a filled cell. Then, after a ...

The uniform odd and even subgraph of $\mathbb{Z}^2$
Given a (first finite and later infinite) graph $G =(V,E)$ the uniform even graph is the uniform probability measure on the set of spanning even subgraphs. That is subgraphs (V, E') with $E' \subset E$...

An elementary question in bond percolation
Consider a locally finite, connected graph and "bond (edge) percolation" on this graph. Each edge is open with probability $p.$ There is a parameter $\alpha$, $0<\alpha<1.$
The ...

Generalization: (The "number" of) smaller sized clusters in large random binary matrices follow a descending order. Why?
This is a sequel to the question: Why is number of single cell clusters always greatest in a random matrix?
In their answer, @Aaron Meyerowitz came up with a nice strategy to prove why the number of ...

Why is number of single cell clusters always greatest in a random matrix?
Consider a large $N\times N$ square lattice, where each cell has a probability $p$ of being "occupied" (let's call denote them as "black") and a probability $1-p$ of being empty (let's denote them as "...

Probability for a group of stones to live on an infinite Go board
Suppose on an infinite two dimensional Go board the tengen is occupied by a black stone, and every other grid point is occupied by a black stone, or a white stone, or nothing, with probability 1/3 ...

Proof and interpretation of the following percolation theory result for $n\times n$ square grid
While I was discussing this question with @JamesMartin, he mentioned a result here that:
In a $n\times n$ finite square grid, if $p\geq p_c+\epsilon$, such
that $\epsilon>0$ and $p_c$ is the ...

Is this correct: Inflection points of Euler number graph in Island-Mainland transition correspond to spanning cluster site percolation threshold?
I'm writing with respect to the paper Khatun, Dutta, and Tarafdar - "Islands in Sea" and "Lakes in Mainland" phases and related transitions simulated on a square lattice.
Here's a link to a PDF ...

KPZ relation $\chi = 2 \xi -1$ in a random geometric graph
If I have $n$ points uniformly distributed on the surface of a torus, and form a graph by adding an edge between pairs whenever they are within a unit distance (induced by the Euclidean metric), I ...

A random variable standing for the size of connected component including a given node in a tree
Suppose we have a tree $T = (V,E)$, in which each nodes $v_i \in V$ has a probability $p_i$ to vanish. Let $v_0\in V$, we define random variable $\boldsymbol{X} = \boldsymbol{X}(T, v_0)$ stands for ...

Does the concept of connective constant make sense for any tiling of the plane?
First let me define what is the "connective constant" of a two dimensional lattice.
Let $c_{n}$ denote the number of $n$ step self-avoiding walks starting from a fixed origin point in the lattice. ...

Expected number of components with multiple cycles in a subgraph of a square lattice
Short version
Is there an understanding of the emergence and subsequent disappearance of components with zero, one, or more cycles in a random subgraph of a square or cubic lattice, as the edge-...
