Abstract

We study the dynamics of a directed manifold of internal dimension D in a d-dimensional random force field. We obtain an exact solution for dd \to \infty and a Hartree approximation for finite d. They yield a Flory-like roughness exponent ζ\zeta and a non trivial anomalous diffusion exponent ν\nu continuously dependent on the ratio gT/gLg_{T}/g_{L} of divergence-free (gTg_{T}) to potential (gLg_{L}) disorder strength. For the particle (D=0) our results agree with previous order ϵ2\epsilon^2 RG calculations. The time-translational invariant dynamics for gT>0g_{T} >0 smoothly crosses over to the previously studied ultrametric aging solution in the potential case.
