We introduce a Gibbs measure on nearest-neighbour paths of length $t$ in the Euclidean $d$-dimensional lattice, where each path is penalised by a factor proportional to the size of its boundary and an inverse temperature $\beta$. We prove…

Many diffusive systems involve correlated random walkers due to a shared environment. Such systems can be modeled as random walks in random environments (RWRE). These models differ from classical diffusion in the behavior of the extremes --…

We show that the distance in total variation between $(\mathrm{Tr}\ U, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\mathrm{Tr}\ U^2, \cdots, \frac{1}{\sqrt{m}}\mathrm{Tr}\ U^m)$ and a real Gaussian vector, where $U$ is a Haar distributed orthogonal or symplectic…

We study the extremes of branching random walks under the assumption that the underlying Galton-Watson tree has infinite progeny mean. It is assumed that the displacements are either regularly varying or they have lighter tails. In the…
