We consider the maximum of the discrete two dimensional Gaussian free field (GFF) in a box, and prove that its maximum, centered at its mean, is tight, settling a long-standing conjecture. The proof combines a recent observation of…
We consider the two-dimensional Gaussian Free Field on a box of side length $N$, with Dirichlet boundary data, and prove the convergence of the law of the recentered maximum of the field.
We consider the maximum of the discrete two dimensional Gaussian free field in a box, and prove the existence of a (dense) deterministic subsequence along which the maximum, centered at its mean, is tight; this still leaves open the…
We study the tail behavior for the maximum of discrete Gaussian free field on a 2D box with Dirichlet boundary condition after centering by its expectation. We show that it exhibits an exponential decay for the right tail and a double…
We study the distribution of the maximum of a large class of Gaussian fields indexed by a box $V_N\subset Z^d$ and possessing logarithmic correlations up to local defects that are sufficiently rare. Under appropriate assumptions that…
We show that the centered maximum of a sequence of log-correlated Gaussian fields in any dimension converges in distribution, under the assumption that the covariances of the fields converge in a suitable sense. We identify the limit as a…
We consider in this paper the collection of near maxima of the discrete, two dimensional Gaussian free field in a box with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We provide a rough description of the geometry of the set of near maxima, estimates on…
We provide conditions that ensure that the recentered maximum of the Gaussian free field on a sequence of graphs fluctuates at the same order as the field at the point of maximal variance. In particular, on a sequence of such graphs the…
We continue the study of the maximum of the scale-inhomogeneous discrete Gaussian free field in dimension two. In this paper, we consider the regime of weak correlations and prove the convergence in law of the centred maximum to a randomly…
We study the maximum of a Gaussian field on $[0,1]^\d$ ($\d \geq 1$) whose correlations decay logarithmically with the distance. Kahane \cite{Kah85} introduced this model to construct mathematically the Gaussian multiplicative chaos in the…
These lecture notes offer a gentle introduction to the two-dimensional Discrete Gaussian Free Field with particular attention paid to the scaling limits of the level sets at heights proportional to the absolute maximum. The bulk of the text…
We investigate the order of the maximum of the integer-valued Gaussian free field in two dimensions, and show that it grows logarithmically with the size of the box. Our treatment follows closely that of a recent paper by Kharash and Peled…
We prove the tightness of a natural approximation scheme for an analog of the Liouville quantum gravity metric on $\mathbb R^d$ for arbitrary $d\geq 2$. More precisely, let $\{h_n\}_{n\geq 1}$ be a suitable sequence of Gaussian random…
We prove that the set of thick points of the log-correlated Gaussian field contains an unbounded path in sufficiently high dimensions. This contrasts with the two-dimensional case, where Aru, Papon, and Powell (2023) showed that the set of…
We consider the discrete Gaussian Free Field in a square box in $\mathbb Z^2$ of side length $N$ with zero boundary conditions and study the joint law of its properly-centered extreme values ($h$) and their scaled spatial positions ($x$) in…
We revisit a result of Mittal--Ylvisaker that states that the rescaled maximum of a stationary sequence of Gaussian random variables has a Gaussian limit if correlations decay sufficiently slowly. Taking a new approach we relax the…
For $0<\beta<6\pi$, we prove that the distribution of the centred maximum of the $\epsilon$-regularised continuum sine-Gordon field on the two-dimensional torus converges to a randomly shifted Gumbel distribution as $\epsilon \to 0$. Our…
We consider discrete Gaussian free fields with ergodic random conductances on a class of random subgraphs of $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$, $d \geq 2$, including i.i.d.\ supercritical percolation clusters, where the conductances are possibly unbounded…
We consider the lattice version of the free field in two dimensions and study the fractal structure of the sets where the field is unusually high (or low). We then extend some of our computations to the case of the free field conditioned on…
We establish the sharpness of the phase transition for a wide class of Gaussian percolation models, on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ or $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \ge 2$, with correlations decaying at least algebraically with exponent $\alpha > 0$, including the…
