Event details

This is a continuation of the basic introduction to percolation theory. I will derive some results for the 2nd (beside the 1d chain) analytically solvable case, the Bethe lattice, and generally discuss critical phenomena at the percolation transition. If time permits, I will also mention random walks on percolating clusters, which will be more thoroughly discussed in a subsequent talk.
