Abstract

We prove that for a class of anisotropic long-range percolation models for which connection probabilities p<x,z> satisfy some regularity properties, and such that ∑zZ2p<x,z> = ∞, percolation still will occur even if we truncate all edges whose length exceeds some constant (which in this case depends on the family of connectivity probabilities {p<x,z>). We also present an example of dependent long-range percolation model for which this is not true.
