We show that two semi-infinite positive temperature polymers coalesce on the scale predicted by KPZ (Kardar-Parisi-Zhang) universality. The two polymer paths have the same asymptotic direction and evolve in the same environment,…
We study the Directed Polymer model subject to a particular form of disorder, $\eta(x,t)=\eta_X(x) \eta_T(t)$, recently proposed in biological applications. We find that two new universality classes arise, depending on the the lattice…
