Part of the book series: The IMA Volumes in Mathematics and Its Applications ((IMA,volume 8))

Abstract

We prove a relation between the radius and volume of a two-dimensional percolation cluster. This implies for 2D percolation that the critical exponents δ and η satisfy η = 4/(δ + 1) (provided η exists).

Research supported by the NSF through a grant to Cornell University.
