We present a new proof of $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ decay of critical two-point functions for spread-out statistical mechanical models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ above the upper critical dimension, based on the lace expansion and assuming appropriate…
We use the lace expansion to give a simple proof that the critical two-point function for weakly self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ has decay $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ in dimensions $d>4$. The proof uses elementary Fourier analysis and the…
We consider the convolution equation $(\delta - J) * G = g$ on $\mathbb R^d$, $d>2$, where $\delta$ is the Dirac delta function and $J,g$ are given functions. We provide conditions on $J, g$ that ensure the deconvolution $G(x)$ to decay as…

Consider the long-range models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ of random walk, self-avoiding walk, percolation and the Ising model, whose translation-invariant 1-step distribution/coupling coefficient decays as $|x|^{-d-\alpha}$ for some $\alpha>0$. In…
We extend the inductive approach to the lace expansion, previously developed to study models with critical dimension 4, to be applicable more generally. In particular, the result of this note has recently been used to prove Gaussian…
We consider long-range percolation, Ising model, and self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, with couplings decaying like $|x|^{-(d+\alpha)}$ where $0 < \alpha \le 2$, above the upper critical dimensions. In the spread-out setting where the…
The lace expansion is a powerful tool for analysing the critical behaviour of self-avoiding walks and percolation. It gives rise to a recursion relation which we abstract and study using an adaptation of the inductive method introduced by…
The lace expansion has been a powerful tool for investigating mean-field behavior for various stochastic-geometrical models, such as self-avoiding walk and percolation, above their respective upper-critical dimension. In this paper, we…
We prove $|x|^{-2}$ decay of the critical two-point function for the continuous-time weakly self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, in the upper critical dimension $d=4$. This is a statement that the critical exponent $\eta$ exists and is…
We use the lace expansion to study the long-distance decay of the two-point function of weakly self-avoiding walk on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in dimensions $d>4$, in the vicinity of the critical point, and prove an upper bound…
The main result of this paper is a general central limit theorem for distributions defined by certain renewal type equations. We apply this to weakly self-avoiding random walks. We give good error estimates and Gaussian tail estimates which…
The lace expansion for the Ising two-point function was successfully derived in Sakai (Commun. Math. Phys., 272 (2007): 283--344). It is an identity that involves an alternating series of the lace-expansion coefficients. In the same paper,…
We consider long-range self-avoiding walk, percolation and the Ising model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ that are defined by power-law decaying pair potentials of the form $D(x)\asymp|x|^{-d-\alpha}$ with $\alpha>0$. The upper-critical dimension…
We show Green's function asymptotic upper bound for the two-point function of weakly self-avoiding walk in dimension bigger than 4, revisiting a classic problem. Our proof relies on Banach algebras to analyse the lace-expansion fixed point…
We prove a sufficient condition for the two-point function of a statistical mechanical model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d > 2$, to be bounded uniformly near a critical point by $|x|^{-(d-2)} \exp [ -c|x| / \xi ]$, where $\xi$ is the correlation…
We consider nearest-neighbor self-avoiding walk, bond percolation, lattice trees, and bond lattice animals on ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$. The two-point functions of these models are respectively the generating function for self-avoiding walks from…
This paper extends the inductive approach to the lace expansion of van der Hofstad and Slade in order to prove Gaussian asymptotic behaviour for models with critical dimension other than 4. The results are applied by Holmes to study…
We consider self-avoiding walk, percolation and the Ising model with long and finite range. By means of the lace expansion we prove mean-field behavior for these models if $d>2(\alpha\wedge2)$ for self-avoiding walk and the Ising model, and…
