A Brief Introduction to First-passage Percolation (II) .... (Postpone due to Covid)
Wai Kit Lam (National Taiwan University)
Abstract
Continuing the previous talk, we will first discuss conjectures and known results about the limit shape in first-passage percolation. After that, we will discuss the fluctuations of the first-passage time . In this talk, we will mainly focus on the variance upper bound of , which is shown to be sublinear in (this is also known as the superconcentration phenomenon).
