Abstract: We study the site version of (independent) first-passage percolation on the triangular lattice $mathbbT$. Denote the passage time of the site $v$ in $mathbbT$ by $t(v)$, and assume that $P(t(v)=0)=P(t(v)=1)=1/2$. Denote by $a_{0,n}$ the passage time from $extbf0$ to $(n,0)$, and by $b_{0,n}$ the passage time from $extbf0$ to the halfplane $(x,y):xgeqn$. We prove that there exists a constant $0<mu<infty$ such that as $nightarrowinfty$, $a_{0,n}/lognightarrowmu$ in probability and $b_{0,n}/lognightarrowmu/2$ almost surely. This result confirms a prediction of Kesten and Zhang (Probab. Theory Relat. Fields extbf{107}: 137--160, 1997). The proof relies on the existence of the full scaling limit of critical site percolation on $mathbbT$, established by Camia and Newman.
