Counting Self-Avoiding Walks on a Lattice, from Combinatorics to Physics
McDonnell Hall A02 /
-
A self-avoiding walk (SAW) on a graph is a path which does not visit any vertex twice. In this talk, we study an enumeration problem consisting in counting such walks… See Full Abstract

Sharp Threshold Phenomena in Percolation
McDonnell Hall A02 /

The Russo-Seymour-Welsh Theory for Dependent Percolation Models and its Applications
McDonnell Hall A02 /
-
In this third talk, we wish to present some of the mathematical study of critical percolation on a two-dimensional lattice. A key tool in analysing such models is a… See Full Abstract
