Let X := Xn ∪ {(0, 0), (1, 0)}, where Xn is a planar Poisson point process of intensity n. We provide a first non-trivial lower bound for the distance between the expected length of the shortest path between (0, 0) and (1, 0) in the Delaunay triangulation associated with X when the intensity of Xn goes to infinity. Simulations indicate that the correct value is about 1.04. We also prove that the expected length of the so-called upper path converges to 35 3π 2 , giving an upper bound for the expected length of the smallest path.
