A percolating hard sphere model

Abstract: Given a homogeneous Poisson point process in R d , Häggström and Meester (Random Struct Algorithms 9 (1996) 295-315) asked whether it is possible to place spheres (of differing radii) centred at the points, in a translation-invariant way, so that the spheres do not overlap but there is an unbounded component of touching spheres. We prove that the answer is yes in sufficiently high dimension.

“…Percolation threshold bounds are also applied in the study of related models. As examples, Cotar, Holroyd, and Revelle [7] used an upper bound for the hexagonal lattice site percolation threshold [28] to prove the existence of percolation in a Poisson hard sphere process, and Don [12] used a lower bound for the square lattice site percolation threshold [38] to produce a bound for the threshold of fractal percolation.…”
