On the Thermodynamic Limit in Random Resistors Networks
  We study a random resistors network model on a euclidean geometry $\bt{Z}^d$. We formulate the model in terms of a variational principle and show that, under appropriate boundary conditions, the thermodynamic limit of the dissipation per unit volume is finite almost surely and in the mean. Moreover, we show that for a particular thermodynamic limit the result is also independent of the boundary conditions.
