consider a stretched version of the square lattice where the distances between
neighboring vertical columns are given by interarrival intervals of a renewal
process. Hence, horizontal edges that link vertices in the same pair of
vertical columns have a common random length while every vertical edge has
length one. Conditioned on the realization of the lattice, we define a bond
percolation model where edges are open with probabilities that depend on their
length. We relate the question of whether the model undergoes a non-trivial
phase transition to the moments of interarrival times of the renewal process
governing the distance among columns. We will also discuss some other related
percolation models defined on media with similar types of columnar disorder.
Based on a joint work with Marcos Sá, Augusto Teixeira and Remy Sanchis.<span></span></span></p>
