 Solution

Use the following general result, including its site version: independent site percolation on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$ has almost surely at most one infinite percolation cluster at each fixed parameter; for every fixed $r>p_c$ it has exactly one almost surely. This is the uniqueness of the infinite percolation cluster, also called the Burton-Keane theorem. For $d\ge 2$, the additional general fact $p_c<1$ ensures a choice of a parameter strictly between $p_c$ and $1$. In dimension one, $p_c=1$ and the asserted interval is empty.

Fix $p\in (p_c,1]$ and choose $q\in (p_c,p)$. Let ${\mathcal{C}}_q$ be the unique infinite open connected component of a graph at $q$. Under the monotone coupling of Bernoulli percolation, it is contained in the unique infinite open connected component of a graph at $p$. On $I_p$, the origin and ${\mathcal{C}}_q$ therefore lie in that same connected component of a graph, and a finite $p$-open graph path connects $0$ to some graph vertex of ${\mathcal{C}}_q$.

For this fixed deterministic $p$, the countable set of uniforms satisfies $U_v\ne p$ at every graph vertex almost surely. Thus all uniforms on that finite graph path are strictly less than $p$, including its endpoints. If $t$ is their maximum, choose $r$ with $\max (q,t)<r<p$. The graph path is then $r$-open, and its endpoint remains connected to infinity through ${\mathcal{C}}_q$. Consequently $I_r$ occurs and $M<p$. We have provedPart (d) gives left continuity at this $p$; part (b) supplies right continuity when $p<1$. The same finite-path proof gives left continuity at $p=1$, since all uniforms are strictly less than $1$ almost surely. Thus $\theta$ is continuous on $(p_c,1]$, without asserting continuity at $p_c$. This is supercritical continuity of percolation probability.
