We consider asymtotics of a domino tiling model on a class of domains which we call rectangular Aztec diamonds. We prove the Law of Large Numbers for the corresponding height functions and provide explicit formulas for the limit. For a…
The domino-shuffling algorithm can be seen as a stochastic process describing the irreversible growth of a $(2+1)$-dimensional discrete interface. Its stationary speed of growth $v_{\mathtt w}(\rho)$ depends on the average interface slope…
We study random domino tilings of the Aztec diamond with different weights for horizontal and vertical dominoes. A domino tiling of an Aztec diamond can also be described by a particle system which is a determinantal process. We give a…
We develop a hydrodynamic theory for a height-dependent version of the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process in which the jump rate at a growth site is sampled from a macroscopic two-dimensional speed function evaluated at the spatial…
We consider domino tilings of the Aztec diamond. Using the Domino Shuffling algorithm introduced by Elkies, Kuperberg, Larsen, and Propp in arXiv:math/9201305, we are able to generate domino tilings uniformly at random. In this paper, we…
Domino tilings of the two-periodic Aztec diamond feature all of the three possible types of phases of random tiling models. These phases are determined by the decay of correlations between dominoes and are generally known as solid, liquid…
We introduce a new class of discrete approximations of planar domains that we call "hedgehog domains". In particular, this class of approximations contains two-step Aztec diamonds and similar shapes. We show that fluctuations of the height…
We study the asymptotic behavior of random domino tilings of the Aztec diamond of size $M$ in a random environment, where the environment is a one-periodic sequence of i.i.d. random weights attached to domino positions (i.e., to the edges…
The Markov dynamics of interlaced particle arrays, introduced by A. Borodin and P. Ferrari in arXiv:0811.0682, is a classical example of (2+1)-dimensional random growth model belonging to the so-called Anisotropic KPZ universality class. In…
In this article we define a generalization of the domino shuffling algorithm for tilings of the Aztec diamond to the interacting $k$-tilings recently introduced by S. Corteel, A. Gitlin, and the first author. We describe the algorithm both…
We present a general approach for the study of dimer model limit shape problems via variational and integrable systems techniques. In particular we deduce the limit shape of the Aztec diamond and the hexagon for quasi-periodic weights…
In this paper we consider domino tilings of the Aztec diamond with doubly periodic weightings. In particular a family of models which, for any $ k \in \mathbb{N} $, includes models with $ k $ smooth regions is analyzed as the size of the…
The arctic circle theorem of Jockusch, Propp, and Shor asserts that uniformly random domino tilings of an Aztec diamond of high order are frozen with asymptotically high probability outside the "arctic circle" inscribed within the diamond.…
We study a reversible continuous-time Markov dynamics on lozenge tilings of the plane, introduced by Luby et al. Single updates consist in concatenations of $n$ elementary lozenge rotations at adjacent vertices. The dynamics can also be…
We consider the dimer model in cylindrical domains $\Omega_\delta$ on square grids of mesh size $\delta$ with two Temperleyan boundary components of different colors. Assuming that the $\Omega_\delta$ approximate a cylindrical domain…
We show that the ideal hydrodynamics of an eccentric astrophysical disc can be derived from a variational principle. The nonlinear secular theory describes the slow evolution of a continuous set of nested elliptical orbits as a result of…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the probability that, if one chooses a domino tiling of a large Aztec diamond at random according to the uniform distribution on such tilings, the tiling will contain a domino covering a given pair of…
We study a $(2+1)$-dimensional stochastic interface growth model, that is believed to belong to the so-called Anisotropic KPZ (AKPZ) universality class [Borodin and Ferrari, 2014]. It can be seen either as a two-dimensional interacting…
We study central limit theorems for a totally asymmetric, one-dimensional interacting random system. The models we work with are the Aldous-Diaconis-Hammersley process and the related stick model. The A-D-H process represents a particle…
In this article we study domino tilings of a family of finite regions called Aztec diamonds. Every such tiling determines a partition of the Aztec diamond into five sub-regions; in the four outer sub-regions, every tile lines up with nearby…
