Scale-invariant fluctuations of growing interfaces are studied for circular clusters of an off-lattice variant of the Eden model, which belongs to the (1+1)-dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class. Statistical properties of…
We analyze the Rubinstein-Duke model for polymer reptation by means of density matrix renormalization techniques. We find a crossover behavior for a series of quantities as function of the polymer length. The crossover length may become…
Fluctuations may govern the fate of an interacting particle system even on the mean-field level. This is demonstrated via a three species cyclic trapping reaction with a large, yet finite number of particles, where the final number of…
We consider directed percolation processes for particle types A and B coupled unidirectionally by a transmutation reaction A -> B. It is shown that the strong coupling regime of this recently introduced problem defines a universality class…
We study stress relaxation in bi-disperse entangled polymer solutions. Shorter chains embedded in a majority of longer ones are known to be oriented by coupling to them. We analyze the mechanism for this both by computer simulation and…
We present simulation results for the contact process on regular, cubic networks that are composed of a one-dimensional lattice and a set of long edges with unbounded length. Networks with different sets of long edges are considered, that…
We use the Bond Fluctuation Model (BFM) to study the pore-blockade times of a translocating polymer of length $N$ in two dimensions, in the absence of external forces on the polymer (i.e., unbiased translocation) and hydrodynamic…
We investigate numerically, using the bond-fluctuation model, the adsorption of many random AB--copolymers with excluded volume interactions at the interface between two solvents. We find two regimes, controlled by the total number of…
We consider a flip dynamics for directed (1+d)-dimensional lattice paths with length L. The model can be interpreted as a higher dimensional version of the simple exclusion process, the latter corresponding to the case d=1. We prove that…
We study directed polymers subject to a quenched random potential in d transversal dimensions. This system is closely related to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation of nonlinear stochastic growth. By a careful analysis of the perturbation…
The model of directed polymer in a random environment is a fundamental model of interaction between a simple random walk and ambient disorder. This interaction gives rise to complex phenomena and transitions from a central limit theory to…
We consider the drift of a polymer chain in a disordered medium, which is caused by a constant force applied to the one end of the polymer, under neglecting the thermal fluctuations. In the lowest order of the perturbation theory we have…
We have simulated an automaton version of the quenched Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (qKPZ) equation in one and two dimensions in order to study the scaling properties of the interface at the depinning transition. Specifically, the $\alpha$, $\beta$,…
We revisit the classical problem of a polymer confined in a slit in both of its static and dynamic aspects. We confirm a number of well known scaling predictions and analyse their range of validity by means of comprehensive Molecular…
The phase diagram of QCD at finite temperature and density and the existence of a critical point are currently very actively researched topics. Although tremendous progress has been made, in the case of two light quark flavors even the…
A modification of the optimal fluctuation approach is applied to study the tails of the free energy distribution function P(F) for an elastic string in quenched disorder both in the regions of the universal behavior of P(F) and in the…
We propose a lattice model for Dirac fermions which allows us to break the degeneracy of the node structure. In the presence of a random gap we analyze the scaling behavior of the localization length as a function of the system width within…
It has become increasingly clear that a full understanding of the physics of electrons in disordered systems requires an approach in which both disorder and interactions are taken into account. Work on small numbers of electrons has…

We consider a directed polymer model in dimension $1+1$, where the disorder is given by the occupation field of a Poisson system of independent random walks on $\mathbb Z$. In a suitable continuum and weak disorder limit, we show that the…
