Abstract

The influence theorem for product measures on the discrete space 0,1N may be extended to probability measures with the property of monotonicity (which is equivalent to `strong positive-association'). Corresponding results are valid for probability measures on the cube [0,1]N that are absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. These results lead to a sharp-threshold theorem for measures of random-cluster type, and this may be applied to box-crossings in the two-dimensional random-cluster model.
