We examine the evolution of the best choice algorithm and the probability of its success from a directed path to the linear order of the same cardinality through $k$th powers of a directed path, $1 \leq k < n$. The vertices of a $k$th power…
This is a brief survey of laws of large numbers, fluctuation results and large deviation principles for asymmetric interacting particle systems that represent moving interfaces on the plane. We discuss the exclusion process, the Hammersley…
This paper is a follow-up work of arxiv.org/abs/2101.05949. We study a non-directed polymer model in random environments. The polymer is represented by a simple symmetric random walk $S$ on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $d\geq2$ and the random…
We have obtained the universal conductance distribution of two-dimensional disordered systems in the strongly localized limit. This distribution is directly related to the Tracy-Widom distribution, which has recently appeared in many…
We study the path properties of a random polymer attracted to a defect line by a potential with disorder, and we prove that in the delocalized regime, at any temperature, the number of contacts with the defect line remains in a certain…
We study the influence of structural obstacles in a disordered environment on the size and shape characteristics of long flexible polymer macromolecules. We use the model of self-avoiding random walks on diluted regular lattices at the…
Under typical scaling, the last passage time field of the directed last passage percolation model with exponential site distributions converges to the KPZ fixed point. In this paper, we consider an atypical scenario in which the last…

The problem of one-dimensional randomly forced Burgers turbulence is considered in terms of (1+1) directed polymers. In the limit of strong turbulence (which corresponds to the zero temperature limit for the directed polymer system) using…
The study of transversal fluctuations of the optimal path is a crucial aspect of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class. In this work, we establish the large deviation limit for the midpoint transversal fluctuations in a general…
We study the statistics of semi-meanders, i.e. configurations of a set of roads crossing a river through n bridges, and possibly winding around its source, as a toy model for compact folding of polymers. By analyzing the results of a direct…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $\left(\frac{\cdot}{p}\right)$ be the Legendre symbol modulo $p$. The \emph{Legendre path} attached to $p$ is the polygonal path whose vertices are the normalized character sums $\frac{1}{\sqrt{p}} \sum_{n\leq…
Sampling-based motion planners have proven to be efficient solutions to a variety of high-dimensional, geometrically complex motion planning problems with applications in several domains. The traditional view of these approaches is that…
The phase diagram of unzipping of an adsorbed directed polymer in two dimensions in a random medium has been determined. Both the hard-wall and the soft-wall cases are considered. Exact solutions for the pure problem with different…
In this article, we consider limit theorems for some weighted type random sums (or discrete rough integrals). We introduce a general transfer principle from limit theorems for unweighted sums to limit theorems for weighted sums via rough…
The minimal energy variations of a directed polymer with tilted columnar disorder in two dimensions are shown numerically to obey a multiscaling at short distances which crosses over to global simple scaling at large distances. The scenario…
We consider the sum of power weighted nearest neighbor distances in a sample of size n from a multivariate density f of possibly unbounded support. We give various criteria guaranteeing that this sum satisfies a law of large numbers for…
We study the statistics of the optimal path in both random and scale free networks, where weights $w$ are taken from a general distribution $P(w)$. We find that different types of disorder lead to the same universal behavior. Specifically,…
Using path integral technique, we show exactly that for a semiflexible biopolymer in constant extension ensemble, no matter how long the polymer and how large the external force, the effects of short range correlations in the…
Density ratio estimation in high dimensions can be reframed as integrating a certain quantity, the time score, over probability paths which interpolate between the two densities. In practice, the time score has to be estimated based on…
