We consider the Random Walk Pinning Model studied in [3,2]: this is a random walk X on Z^d, whose law is modified by the exponential of \beta times L_N(X,Y), the collision local time up to time N with the (quenched) trajectory Y of another…
We consider a polymer with configuration modeled by the path of a Markov chain, interacting with a potential $u+V_n$ which the chain encounters when it visits a special state 0 at time $n$. The disorder $(V_n)$ is a fixed realization of an…
We study the critical point of directed pinning/wetting models with quenched disorder. The distribution K(.) of the location of the first contact of the (free) polymer with the defect line is assumed to be of the form…
We study the continuous time version of the random walk pinning model, where conditioned on a continuous time random walk Y on Z^d with jump rate \rho>0, which plays the role of disorder, the law up to time t of a second independent random…
The Random Walk Pinning Model (RWPM) is a statistical mechanics model in which the trajectory of a continuous time random walk $X=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is rewarded according to the time it spends together with a moving catalyst. More…
In this paper we look at the pinning of a directed polymer by a one-dimensional linear interface carrying random charges. There are two phases, localized and delocalized, depending on the inverse temperature and on the disorder bias. Using…
We consider the continuous time version of the Random Walk Pinning Model (RWPM), studied in [5,6,7]. Given a fixed realization of a random walk Y$ on Z^d with jump rate rho (that plays the role of the random medium), we modify the law of a…
We consider self-avoiding walk on a tree with random conductances. It is proven that in the weak disorder regime, the quenched critical point is equal to the annealed one, and that in the strong disorder regime, these critical points are…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be two independent random walks on $\Z^2$ with zero mean and finite variances, and let $L_t(X,Y)$ be the local time of $X-Y$ at the origin at time $t$. We show that almost surely with respect to $Y$, $L_t(X,Y)/\log t$…
This paper provides a rigorous study of the localization transition for a Gaussian free field on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ interacting with a quenched disordered substrate that acts on the interface when the interface height is close to zero. The…
We consider a directed polymer of length $N$ interacting with a linear interface. The monomers carry i.i.d. random charges $(\omega_i)_{i=1}^N$ taking values in $\mathbb{R}$ with mean zero and variance one. Each monomer $i$ contributes an…
This paper focuses on directed polymers pinned at a disordered and correlated interface. We assume that the disorder sequence is a q-order moving average and show that the critical curve of the annealed model can be expressed in terms of…
Motivated by the study of the directed polymer model with mobile Poissonian traps or catalysts and the stochastic parabolic Anderson model with time dependent potential, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of…
The effect of disorder for pinning models is a subject which has attracted much attention in theoretical physics and rigorous mathematical physics. A peculiar point of interest is the question of coincidence of the quenched and annealed…
In this paper, we study a disordered pinning model induced by a random walk whose increments have a finite $(2+\kappa)$-th moment for some $\kappa>0$. It is known that this model is marginally relevant, and moreover, it undergoes a phase…
We consider a polymer, with monomer locations modeled by the trajectory of a Markov chain, in the presence of a potential that interacts with the polymer when it visits a particular site 0. Disorder is introduced by, for example, having the…
We investigate the effect of correlated disorder on the localization transition undergone by a renewal sequence with loop exponent $\alpha$ > 0, when the correlated sequence is given by another independent renewal set with loop exponent…
We consider a model of a polymer in $\mathbb{Z}^{d+1}$, constrained to join 0 and a hyperplane at distance $N$. The polymer is subject to a quenched nonnegative random environment. Alternatively, the model describes crossing random walks in…
