Abstract: We study the stationary distribution of the (spread-out) $d$-dimensional contact process from the point of view of site percolation. In this process, vertices of $mathbb{Z}^d$ can be healthy (state 0) or infected (state 1). With rate one infected sites recover, and with rate $lambda$ they transmit the infection to some other vertex chosen uniformly within a ball of radius $R$. The classical phase transition result for this process states that there is a critical value $lambd{a}_c(R)$ such that the process has a non-trivial stationary distribution if and only if $lambda>lambd{a}_c(R)$. In configurations sampled from this stationary distribution, we study nearest-neighbor site percolation of the set of infected sites; the associated percolation threshold is denoted $lambd{a}_p(R)$. We prove that $lambd{a}_p(R)$ converges to $1/(1-p_c)$ as $R$ tends to infinity, where $p_c$ is the threshold for Bernoulli site percolation on $mathbb{Z}^d$. As a consequence, we prove that $lambd{a}_p(R)>lambd{a}_c(R)$ for large enough $R$, answering an open question of Liggett and Steif in the spread-out case.
