The two-point functions of these models are respectively the generating function for self-avoiding walks from the origin to $x\in{\mathbb{Z}}^d$, the probability of a connection from the origin to $x$, and the generating functions for lattice trees or lattice animals containing the origin and $x$. Using the lace expansion, we prove that the two-point function at the critical point is asymptotic to $\mathit{const.}|x|^{2-d}$ as $|x|\to\infty$, for $d\geq 5$ for self-avoiding walk, for $d\geq19$ for percolation, and for sufficiently large $d$ for lattice trees and animals. These results are complementary to those of [Ann. Probab. 31 (2003) 349--408], where spread-out models were considered. In the course of the proof, we also provide a sufficient (and rather sharp if $d>4$) condition under which the two-point function of a random walk on ${\mathbb{Z}^d}$ is asymptotic to $\mathit{const.}|x|^{2-d}$ as $|x|\to\infty$.Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/009117907000000231 the Annals of Probability (http://www.imstat.org/aop/) by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (http://www.imstat.org)Mathematical Physics82B27, 82B41, 82B43, 82C41 (Primary) 60K35 (Secondary)Decay of correlations in nearest-neighbor self-avoiding walk, percolation, lattice trees and animalstext
