The time dependence of the survival probability, S(t), is determined for diffusing particles in two dimensions which are also driven by a random unidirectional zero-mean velocity field, v_x(y). For a semi-infinite system with unbounded y…

We consider the following oriented percolation model of $\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb{Z}^d$: we equip $\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb{Z}^d$ with the edge set $\{[(n,x),(n+1,y)] | n\in \mathbb {N}, x,y\in \mathbb{Z}^d\}$, and we say that each edge…

We prove a sufficient set of conditions for a sequence of finite measures on the space of cadlag measure-valued paths to converge to the canonical measure of super-Brownian motion in the sense of convergence of finite-dimensional…

We study lower and upper bounds for the probability that a diffusion process in $\mathbb{R}^n$ remains in a tube around a skeleton path up to a fixed time. We assume that the diffusion coefficients $\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_d$ may degenerate…

We show that the persistence probability $P(t,L)$, in a coarsening system of linear size $L$ at a time $t$, has the finite size scaling form $P(t,L)\sim L^{-z\theta}f(\frac{t}{L^{z}})$ where $\theta$ is the persistence exponent and $z$ is…

We investigate the $\theta$-dependence of 2-dimensional $CP^{N-1}$ models in the large-$N$ limit by lattice simulations. Thanks to a recent algorithm proposed by M. Hasenbusch to improve the critical slowing down of topological modes,…

Survival and percolation probabilities are most important quantities in the theory and in the application of growth models with spreading. We construct field theoretical expressions for these probabilities which are feasible for…

We consider the critical spread-out contact process in Z^d with d\ge1, whose infection range is denoted by L\ge1. In this paper, we investigate the r-point function \tau_{\vec t}^{(r)}(\vec x) for r\ge3, which is the probability that, for…

Motivated by certain problems of statistical physics we consider a stationary stochastic process in which deterministic evolution is interrupted at random times by upward jumps of a fixed size. If the evolution consists of linear decay, the…

We consider percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ and on the $d$-dimensional discrete torus, in dimensions $d \ge 11$ for the nearest-neighbour model and in dimensions $d>6$ for spread-out models. For $\mathbb{Z}^d$, we employ a wide range of…

Consider a critical nearest neighbor branching random walk on the $d$-dimensional integer lattice initiated by a single particle at the origin. Let $G_{n}$ be the event that the branching random walk survives to generation $n$. We obtain…

We consider a directed percolation process at its critical point. The probability that the deviation of the global order parameter with respect to its average has not changed its sign between 0 and t decays with t as a power law. In space…

We consider long-range self-avoiding walk, percolation and the Ising model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ that are defined by power-law decaying pair potentials of the form $D(x)\asymp|x|^{-d-\alpha}$ with $\alpha>0$. The upper-critical dimension…

Consider balls $\Lambda_n$ of growing volumes in the $d$-dimensional hierarchical lattice, and place edges independently between each pair of vertices $x\neq y\in\Lambda_n$ with probability $1-\exp(-\beta J(x, y) )$ where $J(x, y) \asymp \|…

In this paper we consider two branching processes living in a joint random environment. Assuming that both processes are critical we address the following question: What is the probability that both populations survive up to a large time…

In this paper, we establish the necessary and sufficient criterion for the contact process on Galton-Watson trees (resp. random graphs) to exhibit the phase of extinction (resp. short survival). We prove that the survival threshold…

We study a large class of 1D reaction diffusion models with quenched disorder using a real space renormalization group method (RSRG) which yields exact results at large time. Particles (e.g. of several species) undergo diffusion with random…

This paper studies the possibility of using the survival function to predict long term stability by extrapolation. The survival function is a function of the initial coordinates and is the number of turns a particle will survive for a given…

We present a new proof of $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ decay of critical two-point functions for spread-out statistical mechanical models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ above the upper critical dimension, based on the lace expansion and assuming appropriate…

We investigate the first passage time t_{j,N} to a given chemical or Euclidean distance of the first j of a set of N>>1 independent random walkers all initially placed on a site of a disordered medium. To solve this order-statistics problem…
