Effective resistances for supercritical percolation clusters in boxes
Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques, Tome 51 (2015) no. 3, pp. 935-946.

On considère la percolation de Bernoulli par arêtes dans le régime surcritique. Soit 𝒞 n le plus grand amas de percolation dans [-n,n] d d avec d2. Nous obtenons une estimation précise de la résistance effective sur 𝒞 n . Comme application, nous montrons que le temps de recouvrement d’une marche simple sur 𝒞 n est de l’ordre de n d (logn) 2 . En remarquant que le temps de recouvrement d’une marche simple sur [-n,n] d d est de l’ordre de n d logn quand d3 (et de n 2 (logn) 2 quand d=2), ceci montre une différence quantitative entre les deux marches si d3.

Let 𝒞 n be the largest open cluster for supercritical Bernoulli bond percolation in [-n,n] d d with d2. We obtain a sharp estimate for the effective resistance on 𝒞 n . As an application we show that the cover time for the simple random walk on 𝒞 n is comparable to n d (logn) 2 . Noting that the cover time for the simple random walk on [-n,n] d d is of order n d logn for d3 (and of order n 2 (logn) 2 for d=2), this gives a quantitative difference between the two random walks for d3.
