Thus, the set of occupied sites forms a subset of the interlacement at level u. We also investigate percolation properties of empty sites. A recent isomorphism theorem arXiv:1111.4818 of Sznitman enables us to \"translate\" some of the relevant questions into the language of level-set percolation for the Gaussian free field on Z^d, d greater or equal to 3, for which useful tools have been developed in arXiv:1202.5172. We also gain new insights of independent interest concerning \"two-sided\" level-set percolation, where a site x of Z^d is occupied if and only if the absolute value of the field variable at that site exceeds a given non-negative level.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-03-26T22:41:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60G15", "60G55", "60G60", "60K35", "82B43" ], "keywords": [ "gaussian free field", "level set percolation", "level-set percolation", "continuous-time random interlacements", "percolation properties" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 32, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1302.7024R" } } }
