In this paper we consider an equilibrium last-passage percolation model on an environment given by a compound two-dimensional Poisson process. We prove an $\LL^2$-formula relating the initial measure with the last-passage percolation time.…

We consider last-passage percolation models in two dimensions, in which the underlying weight distribution has a heavy tail of index alpha<2. We prove scaling laws and asymptotic distributions, both for the passage times and for the shape…

Liouville first passage percolation (LFPP) with parameter $\xi > 0$ is the family of random distance functions $\{D_h^\epsilon\}_{\epsilon >0}$ on the plane obtained by integrating $e^{\xi h_\epsilon}$ along paths, where…

In the context of first-passage percolation (FPP), we investigate the statistical properties of the selected link-times (SLTs) -the random link times comprising the optimal paths (or geodesics) connecting two given points. We focus on…

A well-known question in planar first-passage percolation concerns the convergence of the empirical distribution of weights as seen along geodesics. We demonstrate this convergence for an explicit model, directed last-passage percolation on…

We consider last passage percolation (LPP) models with exponentially distributed random variables, which are linked to the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP). The competition interface for LPP was introduced and studied by…

We construct and analyze a continuum dynamical percolation process which evolves in a random environment given by a $\gamma$-Liouville measure. The homogeneous counterpart of this process describes the scaling limit of discrete dynamical…

It has been shown that the last passage time in certain symmetrized models of directed percolation can be written in terms of averages over random matrices from the classical groups $U(l)$, $Sp(2l)$ and $O(l)$. We present a theory of such…

For $\xi \geq 0$ and $d \geq 3$, the higher-dimensional Liouville first passage percolation (LFPP) is a random metric on $\epsilon \mathbb{Z}^d$ obtained by reweighting each vertex by $e^{\xi h_\epsilon(x)}$, where $h_\epsilon(x)$ is a…

For the last passage percolation (LPP) on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with exponential passage times, let $T_{n}$ denote the passage time from $(1,1)$ to $(n,n)$. We investigate the law of iterated logarithm of the sequence $\{T_{n}\}_{n\geq 1}$; we…
