Title: The one-arm exponent in high-dimensional percolation
Abstract:
We study the probability that the origin is connected to the sphere of
radius R in critical percolation in high dimensions, namely when the
dimension d is large enough or when d>6 and the lattice is sufficiently
spread out. I will present highlights of the proof that this probability
decays like R^{-2}.
Joint work with Gady Kozma.
