Title: Fully-connected bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$
Abstract:We consider the bond percolation model on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\ge 2$) with the constraint to be fully connected. Each edge is open with probability $p\in(0,1)$, closed with probability $1-p$...We consider the bond percolation model on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\ge 2$) with the constraint to be fully connected. Each edge is open with probability $p\in(0,1)$, closed with probability $1-p$ and then the process is conditioned to have a unique open connected component (bounded or unbounded). The model is defined on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by passing to the limit for a sequence of finite volume models with general boundary conditions. Several questions and problems are investigated: existence, uniqueness, phase transition, DLR equations. Our main result involves the existence of a threshold $0<p^*(d)<1$ such that any infinite volume process is necessary the vacuum state in subcritical regime (no open edges) and is non trivial in the supercritical regime (existence of a stationary unbounded connected cluster). Bounds for $p^*(d)$ are given and show that it is drastically smaller than the standard bond percolation threshold in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. For instance $0.128<p^*(2)<0.202$ (rigorous bounds) whereas the 2D bond percolation threshold is equal to $1/2$.Read More
