Finite-size left-passage probability in percolation    [PDF]

Yacine Ikhlef, Anita Ponsaing
We obtain an exact finite-size expression for the probability that a
percolation hull will touch the boundary, on a strip of finite width. Our
calculation is based on the q-deformed Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov approach, and
the results are expressed in terms of symplectic characters. In the large size
limit, we recover the scaling behaviour predicted by Schramm's left-passage
formula. We also derive a general relation between the left-passage probability
in the Fortuin--Kasteleyn cluster model and the magnetisation profile in the
open XXZ chain with diagonal, complex boundary terms.
