The oriented-percolation critical crossing summability conjecture

Fix 0>0\ell_0>0 and let Ri:=Λi,i/12{\cal R}_i:=\Lambda_{\ell_i,\ell_i/12}, where i=2i1\ell_i=2\ell_{i-1}. Let R3i\partial R_3^i and R4i\partial R_4^i be the two short sides of Ri{\cal R}_i, parallel to e1+e2-e_1+e_2, and let SiS_i be the event that Ri{\cal R}_i is crossed in the parallel direction. Let μρ\mu^\rho denote Bernoulli measure and let pcOPp_c^{OP} be the critical probability for oriented site percolation.

Oriented-percolation critical crossing summability conjecture.

i=1log(μρ(Si))<at ρ=pcOP.\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\left|\log\bigl(\mu^\rho(S_i)\bigr)\right|<\infty\quad\text{at }\rho=p_c^{OP}.

This is a milder version of the anisotropic crossing conjecture, introduced because it is sufficient to prove discontinuity of the transition. The source does not provide a rigorous proof or a resolution.
