We consider models of gradient type, which are the densities of a collection of real-valued random variables $\phi :=\{\phi_x: x \in \Lambda\}$ given by $Z^{-1}\exp({-\sum\nolimits_{j \sim k}V(\phi_j-\phi_k)})$. We focus our study on the…
We extend existing connections between random walks, branching processes, and spatial branching processes, and their respective scaling limits, to include processes in dependent random environments. More specifically, we prove new scaling…
We consider discrete Gaussian free fields with ergodic random conductances on a class of random subgraphs of $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$, $d \geq 2$, including i.i.d.\ supercritical percolation clusters, where the conductances are possibly unbounded…

We consider gradient models on the lattice $Z^d$. These models serve as effective models for interfaces and are also known as continuous Ising models. The height of the interface is modelled by a random field with an energy which is a…
We study the scaling limit of statistical mechanics models with non-convex Hamiltonians that are gradient perturbations of Gaussian measures. Characterising features of our gradient models are the imposed boundary tilt and the surface…

In this article we study the scaling limit of the interface model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ where the Hamiltonian is given by a mixed gradient and Laplacian interaction. We show that in any dimension the scaling limit is given by the Gaussian free…
We study a continuous-time random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in an environment of random conductances taking values in $(0,\infty)$. For a static environment, we extend the quenched local limit theorem to the case of a general speed measure,…
We consider the gradient field model in $\left[ -N,N\right] ^{2}\cap \mathbb{Z}^{2}$ with a uniformly convex interaction potential. Naddaf-Spencer \cite{NS} and Miller \cite{Mi} proved that the macroscopic averages of linear statistics of…
We consider continuous-time random interlacements on a transient weighted graph. We prove an identity in law relating the field of occupation times of random interlacements at level u to the Gaussian free field on the weighted graph. This…
We consider gradient fields $(\phi_x:x\in \mathbb{Z}^d)$ whose law takes the Gibbs--Boltzmann form $Z^{-1}\exp\{-\sum_{< x,y>}V(\phi_y-\phi_x)\}$, where the sum runs over nearest neighbors. We assume that the potential $V$ admits the…
Recently, Hammond and Sheffield introduced a model of correlated random walks that scale to fractional Brownian motions with long-range dependence. In this paper, we consider a natural generalization of this model to dimension $d\geq 2$. We…
We study gradient field models on an integer lattice with non-convex interactions. These models emerge in distinct branches of physics and mathematics under various names. In particular, as zero-mass lattice (Euclidean) quantum field…
We construct a continuous-time non-commutative random walk on $U(\mathfrak{gl}_N)$ with dilation maps $U(\mathfrak{gl}_N)\rightarrow L^2(U(N))^{\otimes\infty}$. This is an analog of a continuous-time non-commutative random walk on the group…
Consider a family of random ordered graph trees $(T_n)_{n\geq 1}$, where $T_n$ has $n$ vertices. It has previously been established that if the associated search-depth processes converge to the normalised Brownian excursion when rescaled…
Kesten et al.( 1975) proved the stable law for the transient RWRE (here we refer it as the $\kappa$-transient RWRE). After that, some similar interesting properties have also been revealed for its continuous counterpart, the diffusion…
A generic second-order scalar-tensor theory contains a nonlinear derivative self-interaction of the scalar degree of freedom $\phi$ \`{a} la Galileon models, which allows for the Vainshtein screening mechanism. We investigate this effect on…
We consider a gradient interface model on the lattice with interaction potential which is a nonconvex perturbation of a convex potential. Using a technique which decouples the neighboring vertices sites into even and odd vertices, we show…
