. A recent theorem by Häggström and Peres concerning independent percolation is extended to all the quasi-transitive graphs. This theorem states that if 0<p 1<p 2≤1 and percolation occurs at level p 1, then every infinite cluster at level p 2 contains some infinite cluster at level p 1. Consequences are the continuity of the percolation probability above the percolation threshold and the monotonicity of the uniqueness of the infinite cluster, i.e., if at level p 1 there is a unique infinite cluster then the same holds at level p 2. These results are further generalized to graphs with a “uniform percolation” property. The threshold for uniqueness of the infinite cluster is characterized in terms of connectivities between large balls. 相似文献

Many interacting particle systems with short range interactions are not ergodic, but converge weakly towards a mixture of
their ergodic invariant measures. The question arises whether a.s.the process eventually stays close to one of these ergodic
states, or if it changes between the attainable ergodic states infinitely often (“recurrence”). Under the assumption that
there exists a convergence–determining class of distributions that is (strongly) preserved under the dynamics, we show that
the system is in fact recurrent in the above sense.
We apply our method to several interacting particle systems, obtaining new or improved recurrence results. In addition, we
answer a question raised by Ed Perkins concerning the change of the locally predominant type in a model of mutually catalytic
branching.

. Consider site or bond percolation with retention parameter p on an infinite Cayley graph. In response to questions raised by Grimmett and Newman (1990) and Benjamini and Schramm (1996),
we show that the property of having (almost surely) a unique infinite open cluster is increasing in p. Moreover, in the standard coupling of the percolation models for all parameters, a.s. for all p
2>p
1>p
c
, each infinite p
2-cluster contains an infinite p
1-cluster; this yields an extension of Alexander's (1995) “simultaneous uniqueness” theorem. As a corollary, we obtain that
the probability θ
v
(p) that a given vertex v belongs to an infinite cluster is depends continuously on p throughout the supercritical phase p>p
c
. All our results extend to quasi-transitive infinite graphs with a unimodular automorphism group.

d

0 defined on a space of smooth local functions, we show the uniqueness of Dirichlet forms associated with self adjoint Markovian
extensions of L
0. We also discuss the ergodicity of the reversible process associated with the Dirichlet form.

Summary. Branching random walks and contact processes on the homogeneous tree in which each site has d+1 neighbors have three possible types of behavior (for d≧ 2): local survival, local extinction with global survival, and global extinction. For branching random walks, we show that
if there is local extinction, then the probability that an individual ever has a descendent at a site n units away from that individual’s location is at most d
− n/2
, while if there is global extinction, this probability is at most d
−n
. Next, we consider the structure of the set of invariant measures with finite intensity for the system, and see how this
structure depends on whether or not there is local and/or global survival. These results suggest some problems and conjectures for contact processes on trees. We prove some and
leave others open. In particular, we prove that for some values of the infection parameter λ, there are nontrivial invariant measures which have a density tending to zero in all directions, and hence are different
from those constructed by Durrett and Schinazi in a recent paper.

We prove the homogenization of convection-diffusion in a time-dependent, ergodic, incompressible random flow which has a
bounded stream matrix and a constant mean drift. We also prove two variational formulas for the effective diffusivity. As
a consequence, we obtain both upper and lower bounds on the effective diffusivity.

We prove the positivity of the self-diffusion matrix of interacting Brownian particles with hard core when the dimension of
the space is greater than or equal to 2. Here the self-diffusion matrix is a coefficient matrix of the diffusive limit of
a tagged particle. We will do this for all activities, z>0, of Gibbs measures; in particular, for large z– the case of high density particles. A typical example of such a particle system is an infinite amount of hard core Brownian
balls.

The number of infinite clusters in dynamical percolation 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Summary. Dynamical percolation is a Markov process on the space of subgraphs of a given graph, that has the usual percolation measure
as its stationary distribution. In previous work with O. H?ggstr?m, we found conditions for existence of infinite clusters
at exceptional times. Here we show that for ℤ
d
, with p>p
c
, a.s. simultaneously for all times there is a unique infinite cluster, and the density of this cluster is θ(p). For dynamical percolation on a general tree Γ, we show that for p>p
c
, a.s. there are infinitely many infinite clusters at all times. At the critical value p=p
c
, the number of infinite clusters may vary, and exhibits surprisingly rich behaviour. For spherically symmetric trees, we
find the Hausdorff dimension of the set T
k
of times where the number of infinite clusters is k, and obtain sharp capacity criteria for a given time set to intersect T
k
. The proof of this capacity criterion is based on a new kernel truncation technique.

We give sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions to some semilinear elliptic equations in bounded domains
with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We impose mild conditions on the domains and lower order (nonlinear) coefficients of
the equations in that the bounded domains are only required to satisfy an exterior cone condition and we allow the coefficients
to have singularities controlled by Kato class functions. Our approach uses an implicit probabilistic representation, Schauder's
fixed point theorem, and new a priori estimates for solutions of the corresponding linear elliptic equations. In the course
of deriving these a priori estimates we show that the Green functions for operators of the form on D are comparable when one modifies the drift term b on a compact subset of D. This generalizes a previous result of Ancona [2], obtained under an condition on b, to a Kato condition on .

For a natural number k, define an oriented site percolation on ℤ2 as follows. Let x
i
, y
j
be independent random variables with values uniformly distributed in {1, …, k}. Declare a site (i, j) ∈ℤ2
closed if x
i
= y
j
, and open otherwise. Peter Winkler conjectured some years ago that if k≥ 4 then with positive probability there is an infinite oriented path starting at the origin, all of whose sites are open.
I.e., there is an infinite path P = (i
0, j
0)(i
1, j
1) · · · such that 0 = i
0≤i
1≤· · ·, 0 = j
0≤j
1≤· · ·, and each site (i
n
, j
n
) is open. Rather surprisingly, this conjecture is still open: in fact, it is not known whether the conjecture holds for any value of k. In this note, we shall prove the weaker result that the corresponding assertion holds in the unoriented case: if k≤ 4 then the probability that there is an infinite path that starts at the origin and consists only of open sites is positive.
Furthermore, we shall show that our method can be applied to a wide variety of distributions of (x
i
) and (y
j
). Independently, Peter Winkler [14] has recently proved a variety of similar assertions by different methods.

We construct a family of diffusions P
α = {P
x} on the d-dimensional Sierpinski carpet F^. The parameter α ranges over d
H
< α < ∞, where d
H
= log(3
d
− 1)/log 3 is the Hausdorff dimension of the d-dimensional Sierpinski carpet F^. These diffusions P
α are reversible with invariant measures μ = μ[α]. Here, μ are Radon measures whose topological supports are equal to F^ and satisfy self-similarity in the sense that μ(3A) = 3α·μ(A) for all A∈ℬ(F^). In addition, the diffusion is self-similar and invariant under local weak translations (cell translations) of the
Sierpinski carpet. The transition density p = p(t, x, y) is locally uniformly positive and satisfies a global Gaussian upper bound. In spite of these well-behaved properties, the
diffusions are different from Barlow-Bass' Brownian motions on the Sierpinski carpet.
