Abstract: For independent bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with parameter $p$, let $p_c^b(d)$ be the critical probability. We prove that for each $d \geq 9$, there is $ε_d>0$ such that for each $p \in (p_c^b(d), p_c^b(d)+ε_d)$, the complement of the infinite open cluster stochastically dominates a supercritical site percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. This improves the previous results by Grimmett, Holroyd and Kozma 2014, and Bock, Damron, Newman and Sidoravicius 2020. Numerical estimates of $p_c^b(d)$ and $p_c^s(d)$ (the site critical probability) suggest that a similar stochastic domination result holds for all $d \geq 4$. For the Ising model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with inverse temperature $β$, let $β_c(d)$ be the critical inverse temperature. We prove that for each $d \geq 8$, there is $ε_d>0$ such that for each $β\in [0,β_c(d)+ε_d)$, the $+$ spins under the minus phase stochastically dominate a supercritical site percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. This improves the previous result of Aizenman, Bricmont and Lebowitz 1987. Numerical estimates of $β_c(d)$ and $p_c^s(d)$ suggest that a similar stochastic domination result holds for all $d \geq 5$.
