Directed polymers in heavy-tail random environment
Abstract
We study the directed polymer model in dimension when the environment is heavy-tailed, with a decay exponent . We give all possible scaling limits of the model in the weak-coupling regime, i.e., when the inverse temperature temperature vanishes as the size of the system goes to infinity. When , we show that all possible transversal fluctuations can be achieved by tuning properly , allowing to interpolate between all super-diffusive scales. Moreover, we determine the scaling limit of the model, answering a conjecture by Dey and Zygouras [cf:DZ] - we actually identify five different regimes. On the other hand, when , we show that there are only two regimes: the transversal fluctuations are either or . As a key ingredient, we use the Entropy-controlled Last Passage Percolation (E-LPP), introduced in a companion paper [cf:BT_ELPP].
