Convergence of critical oriented percolation to super-Brownian motion above \(4+1\) dimensions (Q1874508)

This work is concerned with oriented bond percolation on the lattice \({\mathbb Z}^d\times {\mathbb N}\) at the critical bond occupation density with \(d>4\). A positive parameter \(L\) serves to spread out the connection. If \(L\) is large enough, the moment measures of rescaled critical oriented percolation converge to those of the canonical measure of super-Brownian motion. Lace expansion methods are used for the proof concerning the two-point function (probability that \((0,0)\) is connected to \((x,n)\)), and convergence of the expansion is obtained by a general inductive method. For the \(r\)-point function, the notion of shape (certain rooted binary trees) is introduced, and the proof uses a new expansion method.
