We introduce a new disorder regime for directed polymers in dimension $1+1$ that sits between the weak and strong disorder regimes. We call it the intermediate disorder regime. It is accessed by scaling the inverse temperature parameter…

A systematic analysis of large scale fluctuations in the low temperature pinned phase of a directed polymer in a random potential is described. These fluctuations come from rare regions with nearly degenerate ``ground states''. The…

We propose an improved effective-medium theory to obtain the concentration dependence of the viscosity of particle suspensions at arbitrary volume fractions. Our methodology can be applied, in principle, to any particle shape as long as the…

We consider field theory formulation for directed polymers and interfaces in the presence of quenched disorder. We write a series representation for the averaged free energy, where all the integer moments of the partition function of the…

We develop a dynamical approach to infinite volume directed polymer measures in random environments. We define polymer dynamics in 1+1 dimension as a stochastic gradient flow on polymers pinned at the origin, for energy involving quadratic…

We shift the perspective on the interval fragmentation problem from division points to division spacings. This leads to a proof that is both simpler and stronger, establishing limiting distributions for partition points and spacings and,…

We consider the directed polymer model in the weak disorder phase under the assumption that the partition function is $L^p$-bounded for some $p>1+\frac{2}d$. We prove that the point-to-point partition function can be approximated by two…
