We investigate disorder relevance for the pinning of a renewal whose inter-arrival law has tail exponent $\alpha>0$ when the law of the random environment is in the domain of attraction of a stable law with parameter $\gamma \in (1,2)$. We…
The effect of disorder on pinning and wetting models has attracted much attention in theoretical physics. In particular, it has been predicted on the basis of the Harris criterion that disorder is relevant (annealed and quenched model have…
The effect of disorder for pinning models is a subject which has attracted much attention in theoretical physics and rigorous mathematical physics. A peculiar point of interest is the question of coincidence of the quenched and annealed…
We investigate the effect of correlated disorder on the localization transition undergone by a renewal sequence with loop exponent $\alpha$ > 0, when the correlated sequence is given by another independent renewal set with loop exponent…
This article investigates the question of disorder relevance for the continuous-time Random Walk Pinning Model (RWPM) and completes the results of our companion paper. The RWPM considers a continuous time random walk $X=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$,…
This article investigates the effect for random pinning models of long range power-law decaying correlations in the environment. For a particular type of environment based on a renewal construction, we are able to sharply describe the phase…
The presence of frozen-in or quenched disorder in a system can often modify the nature of its phase transition. A particular instance of this phenomenon is the so-called rounding effect: it has been shown in many cases that the free-energy…
We study the influence of a correlated disorder on the localization phase transition in the pinning model. When correlations are strong enough, a strong disorder regime arises: large and frequent attractive regions appear in the…
We consider a renewal process \tau={\tau_0,\tau_1,...} on the integers, where the law of \tau_i-\tau_{i-1} has a power-like tail P(\tau_i-\tau_{i-1}=n)=n^{-(\alpha+1)}L(n) with \alpha\ge0 and L(.) slowly varying. We then assign a random,…
We consider disordered pinning models, when the return time distribution of the underlying renewal process has a polynomial tail with exponent $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$. This corresponds to a regime where disorder is known to be relevant, i.e.…
We study the random pinning model, in the case of a Gaussian environment presenting power-law decaying correlations, of exponent decay a>0. We comment on the annealed (i.e. averaged over disorder) model, which is far from being trivial, and…
This paper presents a very simple and self-contained proof of disorder irrelevance for inhomogeneous pinning models with return exponent alpha in the Interval (0,1/2). We also give a new upper bound for the contact fraction of the…
Any renewal processes on $\mathbb{N}$ with a polynomial tail, with exponent $\alpha \in (0,1)$, has a non-trivial scaling limit, known as the $\alpha$-stable regenerative set. In this paper we consider Gibbs transformations of such renewal…
We introduce the pinning model on a quenched renewal, which is an instance of a (strongly correlated) disordered pinning model. The potential takes value 1 at the renewal times of a quenched realization of a renewal process $\sigma$, and…
Disordered pinning models are statistical mechanics models built on discrete renewal processes: renewal epochs in this context are called contacts. It is well known that pinning models can undergo a localization/delocalization phase…
Recently the renormalization group predictions on the effect of disorder on pinning models have been put on mathematical grounds. The picture is particularly complete if the disorder is 'relevant' or 'irrelevant' in the Harris criterion…
A class of discrete renewal processes with super-exponentially decaying inter-arrival distributions coincides with the infinite volume limit of general homogeneous pinning models in their localized phase. Pinning models are statistical…
We consider the hierarchical disordered pinning model studied in [9], which exhibits a localization/delocalization phase transition. In the case where the disorder is i.i.d. (independent and identically distributed), the question of…
In this paper, we study a disordered pinning model induced by a random walk whose increments have a finite $(2+\kappa)$-th moment for some $\kappa>0$. It is known that this model is marginally relevant, and moreover, it undergoes a phase…
The Random Walk Pinning Model (RWPM) is a statistical mechanics model in which the trajectory of a continuous time random walk $X=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is rewarded according to the time it spends together with a moving catalyst. More…
