We obtain dimension free estimates for noncommutative Riesz transforms associated to conditionally negative length functions on group von Neumann algebras. This includes Poisson semigroups, beyond Bakry's results in the commutative setting.…
We study the finite-size corrections of the dimer model on $\infty \times N$ square lattice with two different boundary conditions: free and periodic. We find that the finite-size corrections depend in a crucial way on the parity of $N$,…

We study the dimer and Ising models on a finite planar weighted graph with periodic-antiperiodic boundary conditions, i.e. a graph $\Gamma$ in the Klein bottle $K$. Let $\Gamma_{mn}$ denote the graph obtained by pasting $m$ rows and $n$…
This paper presents a simple model that mimics quantum mechanics (QM) results in terms of probability fields of free particles subject to self-interference, without using Schr\"{o}dinger equation or wavefunctions. Unlike the standard QM…
This work is part of a general study on the long-term safety of the geological repository of nuclear wastes. A diffusion equation with a moving free boundary in one dimension is introduced and studied. The model describes some mechanisms…
We consider random walk in a space-time random potential, also known as directed random polymer measures, on the planar square lattice with nearest-neighbor steps and general i.i.d. weights on the vertices. We construct covariant cocycles…
This survey paper deals with upper and lower bounds on the number of $k$-matchings in regular graphs on $N$ vertices. For the upper bounds we recall the upper matching conjecture which is known to hold for perfect matchings. For the lower…
We consider (a) the partition functions of the anisotropic dimer model on the rectangular (2M-1) x (2N-1) lattice with free and cylindrical boundary conditions with a single monomer residing on the boundary and (b) the partition function of…
We propose random walks on suitably defined graphs as a framework for finescale modeling of particle motion in an obstructed environment where the particle may have interactions with the obstructions and the mean path length of the particle…

We study the dimer model on special subgraphs of the square hexagon lattice called "tower graphs" of size $N$. Using integrable probability techniques, we confirm that as $N \rightarrow \infty$, the local statistics are translation…
We study a variant of the down-up and up-down walks over an $n$-partite simplicial complex, which we call expanderized higher order random walks -- where the sequence of updated coordinates correspond to the sequence of vertices visited by…
At the beginning of the 70's, Baxter introduced a multiparametric generalization of the six-vertex model. This integrable system has been found to exhibit a remarkable variety of critical behaviors. The work is part of a series of papers…
