摘要：Fractal percolation is a stochastic model for porous media, introduced in 1974 by Mandelbrot. One can see it as a random subset of the unit square, obtained by randomly removing smaller squares. Since the removed squares get smaller and smaller, the limiting set will have a fractal structure. Depending on the parameters, the properties of the limiting set greatly vary. In particular, there is a sharp phase transition where the limiting set changes from very disconnected to very connected. This involves a critical parameter value $p_c$.

In these talks I will introduce and discuss the model. We will explore the connectivity properties and discuss how to formalize and prove them. Further, we will discuss methods to find rigorous bounds for $p_c$.
