We prove that the free energy of the log-gamma polymer between lattice points $(1,1)$ and $(M,N)$ converges to the GUE Tracy-Widom distribution in the $M^{1/3}$ scaling, provided that $N/M$ remains bounded away from zero and infinity. We…

We prove that under n^{1/3} scaling, the limiting distribution as n goes to infinity of the free energy of Seppalainen's log-Gamma discrete directed polymer is GUE Tracy-Widom. The main technical innovation we provide is a general identity…

The directed polymer in a 1+3 dimensional random medium is known to present a disorder-induced phase transition. For a polymer of length $L$, the high temperature phase is characterized by a diffusive behavior for the end-point displacement…

We study the maximum $\phi_N^*$ of the partition function of the two dimensional (subcritical) Gaussian directed polymer over an $\sqrt N \times \sqrt N$ box. We show that $\phi_N^*/\log N$ converges towards a constant $\sigma^*$, which we…

We consider the point-to-point log-gamma polymer of length $2N$ in a half-space with i.i.d. $\operatorname{Gamma}^{-1}(2\theta)$ distributed bulk weights and i.i.d. $\operatorname{Gamma}^{-1}(\alpha+\theta)$ distributed boundary weights for…

The free-energy fluctuations of the discrete directed polymer in 1+1 dimensions is conjecturally in the Tracy-Widom universality class at all finite temperatures and in the intermediate disorder regime. Sepp\"al\"ainen's log-gamma polymer…
