Uniqueness of the infinite cluster for monotone percolation models without insertion tolerance

We consider a broad class of dependent site-percolation models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ obtained by applying a monotone automaton to a random initial particle configuration drawn from a stochastically increasing family of measures. We prove that whenever the underlying particle configuration is sampled from an insertion-tolerant measure and the avalanches generated by the dynamics produce connected sets, the supercritical phase almost surely contains a unique infinite cluster. Our result applies to several well-studied interacting particle systems, including the Abelian sandpile, activated random walk, and bootstrap percolation. In these models, the induced percolation measure typically does not satisfy standard conditions such as finite energy or insertion tolerance, so the classical Burton-Keane argument does not apply. As an application, we answer a question of Fey, Meester, and Redig concerning percolation of the toppled vertices in the Abelian sandpile with i.i.d. initial configuration.
