This paper extends the inductive approach to the lace expansion of van der Hofstad and Slade in order to prove Gaussian asymptotic behaviour for models with critical dimension other than 4. The results are applied by Holmes to study…

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…

In this paper, we establish the asymptotic expansion at infinity of gradient graph in dimension 2 with vanishing mean curvature at infinity. This corresponds to our previous results in higher dimensions and generalizes the results for…

We consider the $n$-component $|\varphi|^4$ lattice spin model ($n \ge 1$) and the weakly self-avoiding walk ($n=0$) on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, in dimensions $d=1,2,3$. We study long-range models based on the fractional Laplacian, with spin-spin…

Using the Griffiths-Simon construction of the $\varphi^4$ model and the lace expansion for the Ising model, we prove that, if the strength $\lambda\ge0$ of nonlinearity is sufficiently small for a large class of short-range models in…

By introducing a new measure for the infinite Galton-Watson process and providing estimates for (discrete) Green's functions on trees, we establish the asymptotic behavior of the capacity of critical branching random walks: in high…

We consider random elliptic equations in dimension $d\geq 3$ at small ellipticity contrast. We derive the large-distance asymptotic expansion of the annealed Green's function up to order $4$ in $d=3$ and up to order $d+2$ for $d\geq 4$. We…

In [BEI] we introduced a Levy process on a hierarchical lattice which is four dimensional, in the sense that the Green's function for the process equals 1/x^2. If the process is modified so as to be weakly self-repelling, it was shown that…

We consider self-avoiding walk, percolation and the Ising model with long and finite range. By means of the lace expansion we prove mean-field behavior for these models if $d>2(\alpha\wedge2)$ for self-avoiding walk and the Ising model, and…

We consider a transient Brownian motion reflected obliquely in a two-dimensional wedge. A precise asymptotic expansion of Green's functions is found in all directions. To this end, we first determine a kernel functional equation connecting…

The aim of this survey is to explain, in a self-contained and relatively beginner-friendly manner, the lace expansion for the nearest-neighbor models of self-avoiding walk and percolation that converges in all dimensions above 6 and 9,…

We prove that the growth constants for nearest-neighbour lattice trees and lattice (bond) animals on the integer lattice Zd are asymptotic to 2de as the dimension goes to infinity, and that their critical one-point functions converge to e.…

We study an asymptotic expansion of the critical point for the nearest-neighbor oriented percolation on $\mathbb Z^d$ in powers of $d^{-1}$ as $d\rightarrow \infty$. The proof relies heavily on the lace expansion.

We consider the critical behaviour of the continuous-time weakly self-avoiding walk with contact self-attraction on $\mathbb{Z}^4$, for sufficiently small attraction. We prove that the susceptibility and correlation length of order $p$ (for…
