It has recently been shown that there are substantial differences in the regularity behavior of the empirical process based on scalar diffusions as compared to the classical empirical process, due to the existence of diffusion local time.…

We present a field theoretic renormalization group study for the critical behaviour of a uniformly driven diffusive system with quenched disorder, which is modelled by different kinds of potential barriers between sites. Due to their…

We study the classical decay of unstable scalar solitons in noncommutative field theory in 2+1 dimensions. This can, but does not have to, be viewed as a toy model for the decay of D-branes in string theory. In the limit that the…
