We first exhibit several properties of a sequence $({\\mathbf{O}}(n))$ of outlet variables, the $n$th of which gives the number of outlets in the box centered at the origin of side length $2^n$. The most important of these properties describes the sequence's renewal structure and exponentially fast mixing behavior. We use these to prove a central limit theorem and strong law of large numbers for $({\\mathbf{O}}(n))$. We then show consequences of these limit theorems for the pond radii and outlet weights.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2014-07-03T16:58:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "2d invasion percolation", "sequences renewal structure", "central limit theorem", "properties", "side length" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1005.5696D" } } }
