First passage percolation preserves sublinearly Morse boundaries

Sublinearly Morse directions in proper geodesic spaces are defined by sublinearly Morse stability. In this paper we offer an alternative characterization for sublinearly Morse geodesic lines via middle recurrence. We then study first passage percolation (FPP) on proper geodesic graphs of bounded degree. We associate an i.i.d. collection of random passage times to each edge. Under suitable conditions on the passage time distribution, we prove that sublinearly Morse boundaries are invariant under first passage percolation.

First-passage percolation, non-positive curvature, and radial maps

Given an infinite connected graph $G$, a way to randomly perturb its metric is to assign random i.i.d. lengths to the edges of the graph, a process called first-passage percolation. Assume that the graph is infinite and of bounded degree. Assume the edge length distribution, $ν$, has a finite expectation and is supported on $[0, \infty)$. We prove in this paper that non-positive curvature almost surely is not preserved by the associated percolation. In particular, Gromov hyperbolicity and coarse CAT(0) property of graphs are almost surely not preserved. We also show that if a graph contains a Morse geodesic ray, then the resulting image of the ray under first-passage percolation is no longer Morse. Lastly, we show that first-passage percolation almost surely is a radial map on $G$.

Sublinear Morse Geodesics and First Passage Percolation

Given an infinite connected graph, a way to randomly perturb its metric is to assign random i.i.d. lengths to the edges of the graph. Assume that the graph is infinite and of bounded degree. Assume also strict positivity and finite expectation of the edge length distribution and existence of a sublinearly Morse bi-infinite geodesic line, we prove that almost surely there exists a bi-infinite geodesic line. This generalizes a previous result of \cite{BT17} regarding Morse geodesics.
