On the 1+2 dimensional lattice, we consider a directed polymer in a random Gaussian environment that is independent in time and correlated in space. The spatial correlation is supposed to decay as $(\log |x|)^a /|x|^{2}$, $a>-1$, where the…

We show that if the normalized partition function $W^{\beta}_n$ of the directed polymer model on $\mathbb Z^d$ converges to zero, then it does so exponentially fast. This implies that there exists a critical value $\beta_c$ for the inverse…

We study the dynamics of a polymer or a D-dimensional elastic manifold diffusing and convected in a non-potential static random flow (the ``randomly driven polymer model''). We find that short-range (SR) disorder is relevant for d < 4 for…

Stretched polymers with attractive interaction are studied in two and three dimensions. They are described by biased self-avoiding random walks with nearest neighbour attraction. The bias corresponds to opposite forces applied to the first…

For a directed polymer in a random medium lying on an infinite cylinder, that is in 1+1 dimensions with finite width and periodic boundary conditions on the transverse direction, the winding number is simply the algebraic number of turns…

Motivated by discrete directed polymers in one space and one time dimension, we construct a continuum directed random polymer that is modeled by a continuous path interacting with a space-time white noise. The strength of the interaction is…

We consider the Larkin model of a directed polymer with Gaussian-distributed random forces, with the addition of a resetting process whereby the transverse position of the end-point of the polymer is reset to zero with constant rate $r$. We…
