We define two families of Poissonian soups of bidirectional trajectories on $\mathbb{Z}^2$, which can be seen to adequately describe the local picture of the trace left by a random walk on the two-dimensional torus $(\mathbb{Z}/N…
The Brownian Web (BW) is a family of coalescing Brownian motions starting from every point in space and time $\R\times\R$. It was first introduced by Arratia, and later analyzed in detail by T\'{o}th and Werner. More recently, Fontes,…
We show that time dependent couplings may lead to nontrivial scaling properties of the surface fluctuations of the asymptotic regime in non-equilibrium kinetic roughening models . Three typical situations are studied. In the case of a…
Cubical complexes are metric spaces constructed by gluing together unit cubes in an analogous way to the construction of simplicial complexes. We construct Brownian motion on such spaces, define random walks, and prove that the transition…
Every smooth closed curve can be represented by a suitable Fourier sum. We show that the ensemble of curves generated by randomly chosen Fourier coefficients with amplitudes inversely proportional to spatial frequency (with a smooth…
It is shown how to construct a successful co-adapted coupling of two copies of an $n$-dimensional Brownian motion $(B_1,...,B_n)$ while simultaneously coupling all corresponding copies of L\'{e}vy stochastic areas $\int B_i dB_j-\int B_j…
Lupu introduced a coupling between a random walk loop-soup and a Gaussian free field, where the sign of the field is constant on each cluster of loops. This coupling is a signed version of isomorphism theorems relating the square of the GFF…
We study the robustness under perturbations of mixing times, by studying mixing times of random walks in percolation clusters inside boxes in $\Z^d$. We show that for $d \geq 2$ and $p > p_c(\Z^d)$, the mixing time of simple random walk on…
While the structure of chromatin has been studied in great detail on length scales below 30 nm, amazingly little is known about the higher-order folding motifs of chromatin in interphase. Recent experiments give evidence that the folding…
Motivated by [G. Cannizzaro, M. Hairer, Comm. Pure Applied Math., '22], we provide a construction of the Brownian Web (see [T\'oth B., Werner W., Probab. Theory Related Fields, '98] and [L. R. G. Fontes, M. Isopi, C. M. Newman, and K.…
We study the mixing time of a random walker who moves inside a dynamical random cluster model on the d-dimensional torus of side-length n. In this model, edges switch at rate \mu between open and closed, following a Glauber dynamics for the…
We discuss the following type of results about critical Bernoulli percolation in high dimensions: The collection of clusters that do contain large (self-avoiding) loops in a large box is tight. The collection of these large loops has…
We find a strong-to-weak coupling cross-over in D=2+1 SU(N) lattice gauge theories that appears to become a third-order phase transition at N=\infty, in a similar way to the Gross-Witten transition in the D=1+1 SU(N\to\infty) lattice gauge…
We investigate the asymptotic disconnection time of a large discrete cylinder $(\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})^{d}\times \mathbb{Z}$, $d\geq 2$, by simple and biased random walks. For simple random walk, we derive a sharp asymptotic lower bound…
Scale-invariant running couplings are constructed for several quarks being decoupled together, without reference to intermediate thresholds. Large-momentum scales can also be included. The result is a multi-scale generalization of the…
In pure SU(2) gauge theory we compute the two-loop coefficient in the relation between the lattice bare coupling and the running coupling defined through the Schroedinger functional. This result is required to relate the latter to the…
In this article, results have been presented for the two-time correlation functions for a free and a harmonically confined Brownian particle in a simple shear flow. For a free Brownian particle, the motion along the direction of shear…
We study the mixing time of random walks on small-world networks modelled as follows: starting with the 2-dimensional periodic grid, each pair of vertices $\{u,v\}$ with distance $d>1$ is added as a "long-range" edge with probability…
We consider planar quadrangulations with three marked vertices and discuss the geometry of triangles made of three geodesic paths joining them. We also study the geometry of minimal separating loops, i.e. paths of minimal length among all…
Let \alpha ([0,1]^p) denote the intersection local time of p independent d-dimensional Brownian motions running up to the time 1. Under the conditions p(d-2)<d and d\ge 2, we prove lim_{t\to\infty}t^{-1}\log P\bigl{\alpha([0,1]^p)\ge…
