We prove that the classical Laplace asymptotic expansion (AE) of $\int_{\mathbb R^d} g(x)e^{-nu(x)}dx$, $n\gg1$ extends to the high-dimensional regime in which $d$ may grow large with $n$. More specifically, we use new techniques suitable…

The growth exponent $\alpha$ for loop-erased or Laplacian random walk on the integer lattice is defined by saying that the expected time to reach the sphere of radius $n$ is of order $n^\alpha$. We prove that in two dimensions, the growth…

It is well-known that the Fourier extension operator for the paraboloid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ cannot be weak-type bounded at the restriction endpoint $q = 2d/(d-1)$, since such an estimate would imply bounds for the Kakeya maximal function…

We obtain upper bounds for the rates of convergence for the simple random walk Green's function in the domains $D_\alpha = D_{\alpha}(n)=\{re^{i\theta}\in \mathbb{C}:0 <\theta<2\pi-\alpha, 0<r<2n\}-z_0,$ where $z_0\in\mathbb{Z}^2$ is a…

We derive a perturbation expansion for general self-interacting random walks, where steps are made on the basis of the history of the path. Examples of models where this expansion applies are reinforced random walk, excited random walk, the…

In long-range percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, we connect each pair of distinct points $x$ and $y$ by an edge independently at random with probability $1-\exp(-\beta\|x-y\|^{-d-\alpha})$, where $\alpha>0$ is fixed and $\beta\geq 0$ is a…

We study the 2-dimensional uniform prudent self-avoiding walk, which assigns equal probability to all nearest-neighbor self-avoiding paths of a fixed length that respect the prudent condition, namely, the path cannot take any step in the…

The article is an attempt to investigate the issues of asymptotic analysis for problems involving fractional Laplacian where the domains tend to become unbounded in one-direction. Motivated from the pioneering work on second order elliptic…
