We develop a theory for the plasmon spectrum in dirty superconductors across the entire temperature range. Starting with the microscopic Keldysh sigma model description, we link the plasmon dispersion $\omega(q)$ to the optical conductivity…

A random hopping on a fractal network with dimension slightly above one, $d = 1 + \epsilon$, is considered as a model of transport for conducting polymers with nonmetallic conductivity. Within the real space renormalization group method of…

We study the random walk in random environment on {0,1,2,...}, where the environment is subject to a vanishing (random) perturbation. The two particular cases we consider are: (i) random walk in random environment perturbed from Sinai's…

We study the directed polymers in random environment on an infinite graph $G=(V,E)$ on which the underlying random walk satisfies sub-Gaussian heat kernel bounds with spectral dimension $d_{s}$ strictly less than two. Our goal in this paper…

We consider one-dimensional random walks in random environment which are transient to the right. Our main interest is in the study of the sub-ballistic regime, where at time $n$ the particle is typically at a distance of order $O(n^\kappa)$…

We consider a stationary and ergodic random field {\omega(b)} parameterized by the family of bonds b in Z^d, d>1. The random variable \omega(b) is thought of as the conductance of bond b and it ranges in a finite interval [0,c_0]. Assuming…

In this article we study a \emph{non-directed} polymer model in dimension $d\ge 2$: we consider a simple symmetric random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ which interacts with a random environment, represented by i.i.d. random variables…

A multi cone domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ is an open, connected set that resembles a finite collection of cones far away from the origin. We study the rate of decay in time of the heat kernel $p(t,x,y)$ of a Brownian motion killed…

Random reversible and quantum circuits form random walks on the alternating group $\mathrm{Alt}(2^n)$ and unitary group $\mathrm{SU}(2^n)$, respectively. Known bounds on the spectral gap for the $t$-th moment of these random walks have…

Consider a discrete-time one-dimensional supercritical branching random walk. We study the probability that there exists an infinite ray in the branching random walk that always lies above the line of slope $\gamma-\epsilon$, where $\gamma$…

We analyse how simple local constraints in two dimensions lead a defect to exhibit robust, non-transient, and tunable, subdiffusion. We uncover a rich dynamical phenomenology realised in ice- and dimer-type models. On the microscopic scale…

We consider random walks in a random environment that is given by i.i.d. Dirichlet distributions at each vertex of Z^d or, equivalently, oriented edge reinforced random walks on Z^d. The parameters of the distribution are a 2d-uplet of…

We consider the rates of convergence of the quenched central limit theorem for hitting times of one-dimensional random walks in a random environment. Previous results had identified polynomial upper bounds for the rates of decay which are…

We report the continuum limit of quark number susceptibilities in quenched QCD. Deviations from ideal gas behaviour at temperature T increase as the lattice spacing is decreased from T/4 to T/6, but a further decrease seems to have very…
