Critical two-point functions and the lace expansion for spread-out high-dimensional percolation and related models

چکیده
We consider spread-out models of self-avoiding walk, bond percolation, lattice trees and bond lattice animals on Zd, having long finite-range connections, above their upper critical dimensions d = 4 (self-avoiding walk), d = 6 (percolation) and d = 8 (trees and animals). The two-point functions for these models are respectively the generating function for selfavoiding walks from the origin to x ∈ Zd, the probability of a connection from 0 to x, and the generating function for lattice trees or lattice animals containing 0 and x. We use the lace expansion to prove that for sufficiently spread-out models above the upper critical dimension, the two-point function of each model decays, at the critical point, as a multiple of |x|2−d as x → ∞. We use a new unified method to prove convergence of the lace expansion. The method is based on x-space methods rather than the Fourier transform. Our results also yield unified and simplified proofs of the bubble condition for self-avoiding walk, the triangle condition for percolation, and the square condition for lattice trees and lattice animals, for sufficiently spread-out models above the upper critical dimension.

متن کاملSOCIEDADE BRASILEIRA DE MATEMÁTICA Spread-out oriented percolation and related models above the upper critical dimension: induction and superprocesses
In these notes we give an extensive survey of the recent progress for critical spread-out oriented percolation above the upper critical dimension. We describe the main tools, which are the lace expansion and the inductive method. The lace expansion gives a recursion relation for the two-point functions involved, and the inductive method gives an inductive analysis of the arising recursion relat...
متن کاملLace expansion for the Ising model
The lace expansion has been a powerful tool for investigating mean-field behavior for various stochastic-geometrical models, such as self-avoiding walk and percolation, above their respective upper-critical dimension. In this paper, we prove the lace expansion for the Ising model that is valid for any spin-spin coupling. For the ferromagnetic case, we also prove that the expansion coefficients ...
متن کاملAn Extension of the Inductive Approach to the Lace Expansion
We extend the inductive approach to the lace expansion, previously developed to study models with critical dimension 4, to be applicable more generally. In particular, the result of this note has recently been used to prove Gaussian asymptotic behaviour for the Fourier transform of the two-point function for sufficiently spread-out lattice trees in dimensions d > 8, and it is potentially also a...
متن کاملThe survival probability for critical spread - out oriented percolation above 4 + 1 dimensions . II . Expansion
We derive a lace expansion for the survival probability for critical spread-out oriented percolation above 4+1 dimensions, i.e., the probability θn that the origin is connected to the hyperplane at time n, at the critical threshold pc. Our lace expansion leads to a nonlinear recursion relation for θn, with coefficients that we bound via diagrammatic estimates. This lace expansion is for point-t...
