Sandpiles and unicycles on random planar maps

Xin Sun, David B. Wilson

Published 2015-06-29Version 1

We consider the abelian sandpile model and the uniform spanning unicycle on random planar maps. We show that the sandpile density converges to 5/2 as the maps get large. For the spanning unicycle, we show that the length and area of the cycle converges to the hitting time and location of a simple random walk in the first quadrant. The calculations use the "hamburger-cheeseburger" construction of Fortuin--Kasteleyn random cluster configurations on random planar maps.
