Abstract: In percolation theory one studies configurations, based on some infinite lattice, where the sites of the lattice are randomly made F (full) with probability p or E (empty) with probability 1-p. For p > $p_c$, the set of configurations which contain an infinite cluster (a connectivity component) has probability 1. Using an algorithmic method and a rearrangement lemma for Bernoulli sequences, we compute the boundary-to-body quotient of infinite clusters and prove it has the definite value (1-p)/p with probability 1.
