Abstract:
First Passage Percolation was first introduced by Hammersley and Welsh in 1965 as a model for the spread of some material through a random medium. In 1993, van den Berg and Kesten showed that strict inequalities for the time constant with truncation, which leads that maximum edge-traversal time tends to infinity as long as edge distribution is sub-critical and unbounded. In this talk, we talk about the actual growth and related topics.
