The critical probability for Voronoi percolation in the hyperbolic plane tends to 1/2

We consider percolation on the Voronoi tessellation generated by a homogeneous Poisson point process on the hyperbolic plane. We show that the critical probability for the existence of an infinite cluster tends to 1/2 as the intensity of the Poisson process tends to infinity. This confirms a conjecture of Benjamini and Schramm [5].     

Ein Beitrag über Ba3Pt4HgO11: Das erste Erdkalimetall-Oxoplatinat(II,V)/Oxomercurat

A Contribution on Ba₃Pt₄HgO₁₁: The First Alkaline-Earth Oxoplatinate(II,V)/Oxomercurate Single crystals of Ba₃Pt₄HgO₁₁ were prepared by oxygen high pressure technique (4 200–3 600 bar) and investigated by X-ray methods. It crystallizes with hexagonal symmetry, space group D? P6 2c, a = 6.021, c = 17.374 Å, Z = 2. Ba₃Pt₄HgO₁₁ represents a new structure type, showing structural relationships to Ba₂Hg₃Pd₇O₁₄ and to the precious metal 6L-perovskites. The Hg²⁺ ions show dumb-bell like coordination, Pt²⁺ a square-planar surrounding and Pt⁵⁺ face shared double octahedra.     

CdHgO2: Ein Oxomercurat mit Verwandtschaft zur Crednerit-Struktur

CdHgO₂: An Oxomercurate related to the Crednerite Structure Single crystals of CdHgO₂ were prepared by oxygen high pressure technique (600°C, 3900 bar) and investigated by X-ray technique. It crystallizes with monoclinic symmetry, space group C–C2/m; a = 5.933, b = 3.452, c = 5.875 Å, β = 91.26°; Z = 2. The Hg²⁺ ions show dumb-bell like coordination, Cd²⁺ an octahedral one. CdHgO₂ shows strong relationship to the Crednerite structure. The orientation of the O? Hg? O dump-bells to the CdO₆ octahedra layers is discussed with respect to related oxomercurates.
