We investigate and solve the weak noise theory for the semi-discrete O'Connell-Yor directed polymer. In the large deviation regime, the most probable evolution of the partition function obeys a classical non-linear system which is a…
The interaction between a polarizable particle and a reflecting wall is examined. A macroscopic approach is adopted in which the averaged force is computed from the Maxwell stress tensor. The particular case of a perfectly reflecting wall…
By analytically solving some simple models of phase-ordering kinetics, we suggest a mechanism for the onset of non-equilibrium behaviour in colloid-polymer mixtures. These mixtures can function as models of atomic systems; their physics…
We study the relaxation to equilibrium for a class linear one-dimensional Fokker-Planck equations characterized by a particular subcritical confinement potential. An interesting feature of this class of Fokker-Planck equations is that, for…
We analyze a variant of the Desai-Zwanzig model [J. Stat. Phys. {\bf 19}1-24 (1978)]. In particular, we study stationary states of the mean field limit for a system of weakly interacting diffusions moving in a multi-well potential energy…
A microscopic model of interacting oscillators, which admits two conserved quantities, volume, and energy, is investigated. We begin with a system driven by a general nonlinear potential under high-temperature regime by taking the inverse…
A simple fluid, described by point-like particles interacting via the Lennard-Jones potential, is considered under confinement in a slit geometry between two walls at distance Lz apart for densities inside the vapor-liquid coexistence…
We complete the kinetic theory of inhomogeneous systems with long-range interactions initiated in previous works. We use a simpler and more physical formalism. We consider a system of particles submitted to a small external stochastic…
We study numerically the kinetic roughening properties of the precursor fronts of nonvolatile liquid droplets spreading on solid substrates, for the case of circular droplets, more frequently addressed in experiments. To this end, we…
Experimental work has shown that non-equilibrium concentration fluctuations arise during free diffusion in fluids and theoretical analysis has been carried on. The results show that, in usual three-dimensional fluids, the phenomenon is…
We show that observing the trajectories of confined particles in a thermal equilibrium state yields an estimate on the free-space diffusion coefficient. For generic trapping potentials and interactions between particles, the estimate comes…
This paper has two main goals. The first is universality of the KPZ equation for fluctuations of dynamic interfaces associated to interacting particle systems in the presence of open boundary. We consider generalizations on the open-ASEP…
Diffusion properties of a self-avoiding polymer embedded in regularly distributed obstacles with spacing a=20 and confined in two dimensions is studied numerically using the extended bond fluctuation method which we have developed recently.…
We study the solution of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation for the stochastic growth of an interface of height $h(x,t)$ on the positive half line, equivalently the free energy of the continuum directed polymer in a half space with a…
We introduce and study a class of models of free fermions hopping between neighbouring sites with random Brownian amplitudes. These simple models describe stochastic, diffusive, quantum, unitary dynamics. We focus on periodic boundary…
The dimer model on a planar bipartite graph can be viewed as a random surface measure. We study these fluctuations for a dimer model on the square grid with two different classes of weights and provide a condition for their equivalence. In…
We consider two directed polymer models in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class: the O'Connell-Yor semi-discrete directed polymer with boundary sources and the continuum directed random polymer with (m,n)-spiked boundary…
For a system of mean field interacting diffusion on $\mathbb{T}^d$, the empirical measure $\mu^N$ converges to the solution $\mu$ of the Fokker-Planck equation. Refining this mean field limit as a Central Limit Theorem, the fluctuation…
We introduce a model of interacting Random Walk, whose hopping amplitude depends on the number of walkers/particles on the link. The mesoscopic counterpart of such a microscopic dynamics is a diffusing system whose diffusivity depends on…
We study the distribution of the position of the rightmost particle $x_{\max}$ in a $N$-particle Riesz gas in one dimension confined in a harmonic trap. The particles interact via long-range repulsive potential, of the form $r^{-k}$ with…
