The density of interfaces: a new first-passage problem
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
We introduce and study a novel type of first-passage percolation problem on where the associated first-passage time measures the density of interface between two types of sites. If the types, designated + and –, are independently assigned their values with probability p and (1 — p) respectively, we show that the density of interface is non-zero provided that both species are subcritical with regard to percolation, i.e. pc > p > 1 – pc. Furthermore, we show that as p ↑ pc or p ↓ (1 – pc), the interface density vanishes with scaling behavior identical to the correlation length of the site percolation problem.
