Abstract: We consider a model of first passage percolation (FPP) where the nearest-neighbor edges of the standard two-dimensional Euclidean lattice are equipped with random variables. These variables are i.i.d., nonnegative, continuous, and have a finite moment generating function in a neighborhood of $0$. We derive consequences about transverse increments of passage times, assuming the model satisfies certain properties. Approximately, the assumed properties are the following: We assume that the standard deviation of the passage time on scale $r$ is of some order $sigma(r)$, and $leftsigma(r),r>0ight$ grows approximately as a power of $r$. Also, the tails of the passage time distributions for distance $r$ satisfy an exponential bound on a scale $sigma(r)$ uniformly over $r$. In addition, the boundary of the limit shape in a neighborhood of some fixed direction $heta$ has a uniform quadratic curvature. By transverse increment we mean the difference of passage times from the origin to a pair of points which are located as follows: they are approximately in the same direction, say $heta$, from the origin; the direction of one of them from the other is the direction of the tangent of the boundary of the limit shape at the point on the limit shape in the direction $heta$. The main consequence derived is the following. If $sigma(r)$ varies as $r^{c}hi$ for some $chi>0$, and $xi$ is such that $chi=2xi-1$, then the fluctuation of the transverse increment of passage time between a pair of points situated at distance $r$ from each other is of the order of $r^{chi/xi}$.
