In arbitrary spatial dimension $d\ge 1$, we study a generalized model of random walks in a time-varying random environment (RWRE) defined by a stochastic flow of kernels. We consider the quenched probability distribution of the random…
We suggest a new definition for discrete minimal surfaces in terms of sphere packings with orthogonally intersecting circles. These discrete minimal surfaces can be constructed from Schramm's circle patterns. We present a variational…
We consider random extended surface perturbations in the transverse field Ising model decaying as a power of the distance from the surface towards a pure bulk system. The decay may be linked either to the evolution of the couplings or to…
In this paper we show the emergence of polycrystalline structures as a result of elastic energy minimisation. For this purpose, we introduce a variational model for two-dimensional systems of edge dislocations, within the so-called core…
Dispersion relations and polarizations for surface waves in infinite planar samples in the QHE regime are explicitly determined in the small wavevector limit in which the dielectric tensor can be considered as local. The wavelength and…
The Random Field Ising Model (RFIM) is the simplest physical model reflecting effect of quenched disorder on the different types of phase transitions in solids. The presence of multiple energy minima in the RFIM is an important feature…

Given a $C^k$-smooth closed embedded manifold $\mathcal N\subset{\mathbb R}^m$, with $k\ge 2$, and a compact connected smooth Riemannian surface $(S,g)$ with $\partial S\neq\emptyset$, we consider $\frac 12$-harmonic maps $u\in…
We provide a characterization of the spectral minimum for a random Schr\"odinger operator of the form $H=-\Delta + \sum_{i \in \Z^d}q(x-i-\omega_i)$ in $L^2(\R^d)$, where the single site potential $q$ is reflection symmetric, compactly…
Deriving emergent patterns from models of biological processes is a core concern of mathematical biology. In the context of partial differential equations (PDEs), these emergent patterns sometimes appear as local minimisers of a…
We consider mechanics of composite materials in which thin inclusions are modeled by lower-dimensional manifolds. By successively applying the dimensional reduction to junctions and intersections within the material, a geometry of…
We consider $L^2$ minimizing geodesics along the group of volume preserving maps $SDiff(D)$ of a given 3-dimensional domain $D$. The corresponding curves describe the motion of an ideal incompressible fluid inside $D$ and are (formally)…
We study the occurrence of domain branching in a class of $(d+1)$-dimensional sharp interface models featuring the competition between an interfacial energy and a non-local field energy. Our motivation comes from branching in uniaxial…
In this paper we consider the problem of characterizing the minimum energy configurations of a finite system of particles interacting between them due to attracting or repulsive forces given by a certain inter molecular potential. We limit…
A problem of practical significance is the analysis of large, spatially distributed data sets. The problem is more challenging for variables that follow non-Gaussian distributions. We show that the spatial correlations between variables can…
In this article, we prove a lower bound for the fluctuations of symmetric random walks on dynamic random environments in dimension $1 + 1$ in the perturbative regime where the walker is weakly influenced by the environment. We suppose that…
