\section*{Course topics}

This course concerns the physical notion of phase transition, specifically in the model known as ``percolation''.

We will review the main mathematical results regarding percolation and its related counterparts the Ising model, Potts model and Fortuin-Kasteleyn cluster model, starting from works of Ising and Pierles in the beginning of the 20th century and culminating in modern work of Smirnov (for which he was awarded a Fields Medal).

\subparagraph*{The topics in the course are, time permitting:}

\begin{enumerate}
\item{} Percolation on graphs.  Definitions and basic properties.
\item{} Harris' inequality
\item{} van den Berg-Kesten inequality, Reimer's inequality
\item{} Russo's formula
\item{} Burton-Keane Theorem
\item{} Exponential decay of correlations in sub-critical regime
\item{} Planar percolation:  Russo-Seymour-Welsh theory
\item{} Planar percolation: the Harris-Kesten theorem.
\item{} Conformal invariance:  Cardy-Smirnov formula on the triangular lattice
\item{} Percolation on groups
\item{} Critical percolation on non-amenable groups: BLPS
\end{enumerate}
