We analyze height fluctuations in Aztec diamond dimer models with nearly arbitrary periodic edge weights. We show that the centered height function approximates the sum of two independent components: a Gaussian free field on the multiply…
We use the periodic Schur process, introduced in arXiv:math/0601019v1, to study the random height function of lozenge tilings (equivalently, dimers) on an infinite cylinder distributed under two variants of the $q^{\operatorname{vol}}$…
We define a scaling limit of the height function on the domino tiling model (dimer model) on simply-connected regions in Z^2 and show that it is the ``massless free field'', a Gaussian process with independent coefficients when expanded in…
We consider the monomer-dimer partition function on arbitrary finite planar graphs and arbitrary monomer and dimer weights, with the restriction that the only non-zero monomer weights are those on the boundary. We prove a Pfaffian formula…
In this article we study the double dimer model on hyperbolic Temperleyan graphs via circle packings. We prove that on such graphs, the weak limit of the dimer model exists if and only if the removed black vertex from the boundary of the…
We consider dimer models on graphs which are bipartite, periodic and satisfy a geometric condition called {\em isoradiality}, defined in \cite{Kenyon3}. We show that the scaling limit of the height function of any such dimer model is…
We introduce a new class of models for polymer collapse, given by random walks on regular lattices which are weighted according to multiple site visits. A Boltzmann weight $\omega_l$ is assigned to each $(l+1)$-fold visited lattice site,…
We present a detailed study of a model of close-packed dimers on the square lattice with an interaction between nearest-neighbor dimers. The interaction favors parallel alignment of dimers, resulting in a low-temperature crystalline phase.…
The discrete membrane model is a Gaussian random interface whose inverse covariance is given by the discrete biharmonic operator on a graph. In literature almost all works have considered the field as indexed over $\mathbb{Z}^d$, and this…
In this paper we investigate the height field of a dimer model/random domino tiling on the plane at a smooth-rough (i.e. gas-liquid) transition. We prove that the height field at this transition has two-point correlation functions which…
The system of one-dimensional symmetric simple random walks, in which none of walkers have met others in a given time period, is called the vicious walker model. It was introduced by Michael Fisher and applications of the model to various…
We consider the free boundary problem arising from an energy functional which is the sum of a Dirichlet energy and a nonlinear function of either the classical or the fractional perimeter. The main difference with the existing literature is…
We study limit distributions of independent random matrices as well as limit joint distributions of their blocks under normalized partial traces composed with classical expectation. In particular, we are concerned with the ensemble of…
This note relates topics in statistical mechanics, graph theory and combinatorics, lattice quantum field theory, super quantum mechanics and string theory. We give a precise relation between the dimer model on a graph embedded on a torus…
In this paper, we consider the near-critical dimer model in the setup of isoradial superpositions with Temperleyan boundary conditions. We show that the centered height function converges as the mesh size tends to zero to a limiting field…
We consider the dimer-monomer problem for the rectangular lattice. By mapping the problem into one of close-packed dimers on an extended lattice, we rederive the Tzeng-Wu solution for a single monomer on the boundary by evaluating a…
We discuss the asymptotic behaviour of models of lattice polygons, mainly on the square lattice. In particular, we focus on limiting area laws in the uniform perimeter ensemble where, for fixed perimeter, each polygon of a given area occurs…
We consider the diffusion scaling limit of the one-dimensional vicious walker model of Fisher and derive a system of nonintersecting Brownian motions. The spatial distribution of $N$ particles is studied and it is described by use of the…
The six-vertex model is an important toy-model in statistical mechanics for two-dimensional ice with a natural parameter $\Delta$. When $\Delta = 0$, the so-called free-fermion point, the model is in natural correspondence with domino…
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…
