Title:
A Pedagogical Introduction to Critical Percolation via the Hierarchical Lattice

Speaker:
Tom Hutchcroft

Abstract:
I will give an introduction to critical exponents in Bernoulli percolation by analyzing the model on the hierarchical lattice, a toy model that has much more symmetry than the Euclidean lattice and permits exact computation of several interesting quantities. Along the way I will review some classical topics such as the sharpness of the phase transition.
