Hierarchical pinning model: low disorder relevance in the $b=s$ case

Probability 2014-08-15 v1

Abstract

We consider a hierarchical pinning model introduced by B.Derrida, V.Hakim and J.Vannimenus which undergoes a localization/delocalization phase transition. This model depends on two parameters bb and ss. We show that in the particular case where b=sb=s, the disorder is weakly relevant, in the sense that at any given temperature, the quenched and the annealed critical points coincide. This is in contrast with the case where bsb \neq s.
