[en] The Gaussian free field (GFF) is considered in the background of random iso-height islands which is modeled by the site percolation with the occupation probability p. To realize GFF, we consider the Poisson equation in the presence of normal distributed white-noise charges, as the stationary state of the Edwards–Wilkinson model. The iso-potential sites (metallic sites in the terminology of the electrostatic problem) are chosen over the lattice with the probability 1  −  p in the percolation model, giving rise to some metallic islands and some active (not metallic, nor surrounded by a metallic island) area. We see that the dilution of the system by considering these metallic regions annihilates the spatial correlations and also the potential fluctuations. Some local and global critical exponents of the problem are reported in this work. The GFF, when simulated on the active area show a cross over between two regimes: small (UV) and large (IR) scales. Importantly, by analyzing the change of exponents (in and out of the critical occupation p _c) under changing the system size and the change of the cross-over points, we find two fixed points and propose that is unstable towards GFF_p=1.
