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…

We consider the simple random walk on Z^d evolving in a potential of independent and identically distributed random variables taking values in [0, + \infty]. We give optimal conditions for the existence of the quenched point-to-point…
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…
After a general introduction to the field, we describe some recent results concerning disorder effects on both `random walk models', where the random walk is a dynamical process generated by local transition rules, and on `polymer models',…
In the first part of the article our subject of interest is a simple symmetric random walk on the integers which faces a random risk to be killed. This risk is described by random potentials, which in turn are defined by a sequence of…

We consider a model for a polymer interacting with an attractive wall through a random sequence of charges. We focus on the so-called diluted limit, when the charges are very rare but have strong intensity. In this regime, we determine the…
We consider a polymer with configuration modelled by the trajectory of a Markov chain, interacting with a potential of form $u+V_n$ when it visits a particular state 0 at time $n$, with $\{V_n\}$ representing i.i.d. quenched disorder. There…
We consider the simple random walk on the $d$-dimensional lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d \geq 1$), traveling in potentials which are Bernoulli distributed. The so-called Lyapunov exponent describes the cost of traveling for the simple random…
We study quenched distributions on random walks in a random potential on integer lattices of arbitrary dimension and with an arbitrary finite set of admissible steps. The potential can be unbounded and can depend on a few steps of the walk.…
In this paper, we consider directed polymers in random environment with long range jumps in discrete space and time. We extend to this case some techniques, results and classifications known in the usual short range case. However, some…
We consider random walk with bounded jumps on a hypercubic lattice of arbitrary dimension in a dynamic random environment. The environment is temporally independent and spatially translation invariant. We study the rate functions of the…
Consider directed polymers in a random environment on the complete graph of size $N$. This model can be formulated as a product of i.i.d. $N\times N$ random matrices and its large time asymptotics is captured by Lyapunov exponents and the…
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…
We study L\'evy walks in quenched disordered one-dimensional media, with scatterers spaced according to a long-tailed distribution. By analyzing the scaling relations for the random-walk probability and for the resistivity in the equivalent…

We present using simple scaling arguments and one step replica symmetry breaking a theory for the localization of semiflexible polymers in a quenched random environment. In contrast to completely flexible polymers, localization of…
We study the upper tails for the energy of a randomly charged symmetric and transient random walk. We assume that only charges on the same site interact pairwise. We consider annealed estimates, that is when we average over both randomness,…
