Non-trivial percolation transition conjecture for supercritical random planar maps

Fix Q(0,2)Q\in(0,2) and consider site percolation on Mk\mathcal M_k with open boundary condition: boundary vertices are open, while each interior vertex is independently open with probability pp and closed with probability 1p1-p. An open cluster is a connected component of the open vertices. Critical percolation probability conjecture. There exists pc=pc(Q)(0,1)p_c=p_c(Q)\in(0,1) such that, for every p<pcp<p_c and every k\mathbbmNk\in\mathbbm N, almost surely there are no infinite open clusters, whereas for p>pcp>p_c and every k\mathbbmNk\in\mathbbm N, the open cluster containing Mk\partial\mathcal M_k is infinite with positive probability. This asserts a non-trivial phase transition, while the behavior at p=pcp=p_c is addressed separately.
