7. 5. Accessibility percolation and first-passage percolation on the hypercube

   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hypercube; percolation; accessible path; house of cards; rough mount Fuji; first-passage percolation; Richardson s model; branching translation process; hypercube;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we consider two percolation models on the n-dimensional binary hypercube, known as accessibility percolation and first-passage percolation. First-passage percolation randomly assigns non-negative weights, called passage times, to the edges of a graph and considers the minimal total weight of a path between given end-points. LÄS MER
