Weighted isoperimetry implies percolation

Ivailo Hartarsky, Franco Severo, Augusto Teixeira

Consider an infinite edge-weighted graph satisfying an isoperimetric inequality of the type $∥ \partial A ∥ \geq C ∣ A ∣^{α}$ for some $α, C > 0$ , where $∥ \partial A ∥$ denotes the weighte…

Counting minimal cutsets and $p_{c} < 1$

Philip Easo, Franco Severo, Vincent Tassion

We prove two results concerning percolation on general graphs. - We establish the converse of the classical Peierls argument: if the critical parameter for (uniform) percolation sa…
