Abstract: We announce our recent proof that, for independent bond percolation in high dimensions, the scaling limits of the incipient infinite cluster’s two-point and three-point functions are those of integrated super-Brownian excursion (ISE). The proof uses an extension of the lace expansion for percolation.
