We study the directed polymer model in a bounded environment with bond disorder and show that, in the interior of the weak disorder phase, weak disorder continues to hold upon perturbation by a small bias. Using this stability result, we…
We consider a directed polymer interacting with a diluted pinning potential restricted to a line. We characterize explicitely the set of disorder configurations that give rise to localization of the polymer. We study both relevant cases of…

The effect of ambient disorders and sequence heterogeneities on the reptation of a long polymer is studied with the aid of a disordered tube model. The dynamics of a random heteropolymer is found to be much slower than that of a homopolymer…
We study the directed polymer model in dimension ${1+1}$ when the environment is heavy-tailed, with a decay exponent $\alpha\in(0,2)$. We give all possible scaling limits of the model in the weak-coupling regime, i.e., when the inverse…
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…
Very recently, Junk [11] showed that for directed polymers in bounded random environments, the weak disorder (uniform integrable) phase implies that the polymer martingale is bounded in $L^p$ for some $p>1$ and also in $L^q$ for some $q<0$.…
The model of directed polymer in a random environment is a fundamental model of interaction between a simple random walk and ambient disorder. This interaction gives rise to complex phenomena and transitions from a central limit theory to…
We study the path properties of a random polymer attracted to a defect line by a potential with disorder, and we prove that in the delocalized regime, at any temperature, the number of contacts with the defect line remains in a certain…
The competition in the pinning of a directed polymer by a columnar pin and a background of random point impurities is investigated systematically using the renormalization group method. With the aid of the mapping to the noisy-Burgers'…
We study the long-range directed polymer model on $\mathbbm{Z}$ in a random environment, where the underlying random walk lies in the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable process for some $\alpha\in(0,2]$. Similar to the more classic…
We study the directed polymer model in a bounded environment in weak disorder but without $L^2$-boundedness, specifically the speed of homogenization for the field $(W_n^{0,x})_{x\in\mathbb Z^d}$, where $W_n^{0,x}$ denotes the associated…
We consider the model of a directed polymer in a random environment defined on the infinite cluster of supercritical Bernoulli bond percolation in dimensions $d \geq 3$. For this model, it was proved in arXiv:2205.06206 that for almost…
A copolymer is a chain of repetitive units (monomers) that are almost identical, but they differ in their degree of affinity for certain solvents. This difference leads to striking phenomena when the polymer fluctuates in a nonhomogeneous…
We analyze, via Imry-Ma scaling arguments, the strong disorder phases that exist in low dimensions at all temperatures for directed polymers and interfaces in random media. For the uncorrelated Gaussian disorder, we obtain that the optimal…
Polymers in a melt may be subject to topological constraints, as in the example of unlinked polymer rings. How to do statistical mechanics in the presence of such constraints remains a fundamental open problem. We study the effect of…
In this paper, we study a model of a Brownian polymer in $\mathbb {R}_+\times \mathbb {R}^d$, introduced by Rovira and Tindel [J. Funct. Anal. 222 (2005) 178--201]. Our investigation focuses mainly on the effect of strong spatial…
We study the question of how the competition between $\textit{bulk disorder}$ and a $\textit{localized microscopic defect}$ affects the macroscopic behavior of a system in the directed polymer context at the free energy level. We consider…
