Sharp hierarchical upper bounds on the critical two-point function for long-range percolation on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$

Abstract

Consider long-range Bernoulli percolation on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$ in which we connect each pair of distinct points $x$ and $y$ by an edge with probability $1-\exp (-\beta \Vert x-y{\Vert }^{-d-\alpha })$, where $\alpha >0$ is fixed and $\beta \ge 0$ is a parameter. We prove that if $0<\alpha <d$ then the critical two-point function satisfies \[ \frac{1}{|Λ_r|}\sum_{x\in Λ_r} \mathbf{P}_{β_c}(0\leftrightarrow x) \preceq r^{-d+α} \] for every $r\ge 1$, where ${\Lambda }_r=[-r,r{]}^d\cap {\mathbb{Z}}^d$. In other words, the critical two-point function on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$ is always bounded above on average by the critical two-point function on the hierarchical lattice. This upper bound is believed to be sharp for values of $\alpha$ strictly below the crossover value ${\alpha }_c(d)$, where the values of several critical exponents for long-range percolation on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$ and the hierarchical lattice are believed to be equal.
