Driven elastic manifolds in random media exhibit a depinning transition to a state with non-vanishing velocity at a critical driving force. We study the depinning of stiff directed lines, which are governed by a bending rigidity rather than…

We employ a functional renormalization group to study interfaces in the presence of a pinning potential in $d=4-\epsilon$ dimensions. In contrast to a previous approach [D.S. Fisher, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 56}, 1964 (1986)] we use a…
