We study the range of a planar random walk on a randomly oriented lattice, already known to be transient. We prove that the expectation of the range grows linearly, in both the quenched (for a.e. orientation) and annealed ("averaged")…

We study the lattice Green's function (LGF) of the screened Poisson equation on a two-dimensional rectangular lattice. This LGF arises in numerical analysis, random walks, solid-state physics, and other fields. Its defining characteristic…

We consider the Faddeev-Green function in the three-dimensional space and in a slab, and we construct formal asymptotic expansions for the large complex parameter appearing in this function. The basic idea of the construction is to express…

We study the two-point functions of a general class of random-length random walks on finite boxes in $\ZZ^d$ with $d\ge3$, and provide precise asymptotics for their behaviour. We show that the finite-box two-point function is asymptotic to…

We construct Green's functions for elliptic operators of the form $\mathcal{L}u=-\text{div}(A\nabla u+bu)+c\nabla u+du$ in domains $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb R^n$, under the assumption $d\geq\text{div}b$, or $d\geq\text{div}c$. We show that,…

We provide a complete proof of the diagrammatic bounds on the lace-expansion coefficients for oriented percolation, which are used in [arXiv:math/0703455] to investigate critical behavior for long-range oriented percolation above…

We introduce a method for translating any upper bound on the percolation threshold of a lattice $G$ into a lower bound on the exponential growth rate $a(G)$ of lattice animals and vice-versa. We exploit this in both directions. We improve…

We use the lace expansion to prove that the critical values for nearest-neighbour bond percolation on the $n$-cube $\{0,1\}^n$ and on $\mathbb{Z}^n$ have asymptotic expansions, with rational coefficients, to all orders in powers of…

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…

We identify the scaling limit of the backbone of the high-dimensional incipient infinite cluster (IIC), both in the long- as well as in the finite-range setting. In the finite-range setting, this scaling limit is Brownian motion, in the…

We study the scaling limit of a divisible sandpile model associated to a truncated $\alpha$-stable random walk. We prove that the limiting distribution is related to an obstacle problem for a truncated fractional Laplacian. We also provide,…

We compute the first three terms of the 1/d expansions for the growth constants and one-point functions of nearest-neighbour lattice trees and lattice (bond) animals on the integer lattice Zd, with rigorous error estimates. The proof uses…

The exponential decay of lattice Green functions is one of the main technical ingredients of the Ba{\l}aban's approach to renormalization. We give here a self-contained proof, whose various ingredients were scattered in the literature. The…

Linear second order differential equations having a large real parameter and turning point in the complex plane are considered. Classical asymptotic expansions for solutions involve the Airy function and its derivative, along with two…

We establish a local Harnack inequality in a neighborhood of an indecomposable singular point of a stationary integral varifold. Extending the method of Gr\"uter and Widman \cite{gruter1982green}, we construct the Green function on a…

Bessel and modified Bessel functions of imaginary order $i\nu$ ($\nu >0$) are studied. Asymptotic expansions are derived as $\nu \to \infty$ that are uniformly valid in unbounded complex domains, with error bounds provided. Coupled with…

The model of self-avoiding lattice walks and the asymptotic analysis of power-series have been two of the major research themes of Tony Guttmann. In this paper we bring the two together and perform a new analysis of the generating functions…

We consider a long-range version of self-avoiding walk in dimension $d > 2(\alpha \wedge 2)$, where $d$ denotes dimension and $\alpha$ the power-law decay exponent of the coupling function. Under appropriate scaling we prove convergence to…

This is a short review of the two papers on the $x$-space asymptotics of the critical two-point function $G_{p_c}(x)$ for the long-range models of self-avoiding walk, percolation and the Ising model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, defined by the…

This article is devoted to deduce the expression of the Green's function related to a general constant coefficients fractional difference equation coupled to Dirichlet conditions. In this case, due to the points where some of the fractional…
