Abstract

We show that for any Cayley graph, the probability (at any ) that the cluster of the origin has size decays at a well-defined exponential rate (possibly 0). For general graphs, we relate this rate being positive in the supercritical regime with the amenability/nonamenability of the underlying graph.
