Planar travelling waves on $\mathbb R^d,$ with $ d\geq 2,$ are shown to persist in systems of reaction-diffusion equations with multiplicative noise on significantly long timescales with high probability, provided that the wave is orbitally…
We investigate the localization of stiff directed lines with bending energy by a short-range random potential. Using perturbative arguments, Flory arguments, and a replica calculation, we show that a stiff directed line in 1+d dimensions…
We present a unifying picture of the compact, dense and dilute phases of two-dimensional polymers. The lattice dependence of the scaling exponents for compact polymers is reconciled with their universality in the dense and dilute case. In…
We study the relation between the directed polymer and the directed percolation models, for the case of a disordered energy landscape where the energies are taken from bimodal distribution. We find that at the critical concentration of the…
The critical 2D Stochastic Heat Flow (SHF) is a universal measure-valued process that provides a notion of solution to the ill-defined 2D stochastic heat equation. We investigate the SHF in the large-time and strong-disorder regimes,…
We discuss the effects of fluctuations of the local density of charged dopants near a first order phase transition in electronic systems, that is driven by change of charge carrier density controlled by doping level. Using a generalization…

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 consider a particle moving in $d\geq 2$ dimensions, its velocity being a reversible diffusion process, with identity diffusion coefficient, of which the invariant measure behaves, roughly, like $(1+|v|)^{-\beta}$ as $|v|\to \infty$, for…
In this article, we present an invariance principle for the paths of the directed random polymer in space dimension two in the subcritical intermediate disorder regime. More precisely, the distribution of diffusively rescaled polymer paths…
A class of models of driven diffusive systems which is shown to exhibit phase separation in $d=1$ dimensions is introduced. Unlike all previously studied models exhibiting similar phenomena, here the phase separated state is fluctuating in…
We develop a theory for a generic instability of a Fermi liquid in dimension d>1 against the formation of a Luttinger-liquid-like state. The density of states at the Fermi level is the order parameter for the ensuing quantum phase…
We consider directed polymers in random environment in the critical dimension $d = 2$, focusing on the intermediate disorder regime when the model undergoes a phase transition. We prove that, at criticality, the diffusively rescaled random…
We study the collective behavior of binary mixture of self-propelled particles. Particles moves along their heading direction with {\it variable speed} and interact through short range alignment interaction. A variable speed parameter…
Thermal fluctuations are known to play an important role in low-dimensional systems which may undergo incommensurate-commensurate or (for an accidentally commensurate wavevector) lock-in transitions. In particular, an intermediate floating…
We study non-interacting systems with a power-law quasiparticle dispersion $\xi_{\bf k}\propto k^\alpha$ and a random short-range-correlated potential. We show that, unlike the case of lower dimensions, for $d>2\alpha$ there exists a…
