Abstract

In this work, we study the critical long-range percolation on ℤ, where an edge connects i and j independently with probability 1-exp\-β|i-j|-2\ for some fixed β>0. Viewing this as a random electric network where each edge has a unit conductance, we show that with high probability the effective resistances from the origin 0 to [-N, N]c and from the interval [-N,N] to [-2N,2N]c (conditioned on no edge joining [-N,N] and [-2N,2N]c) both have a polynomial lower bound in N. Our bound holds for all β>0 and thus rules out a potential phase transition (around β= 1) which seemed to be a reasonable possibility.
