Consider a logarithmically-correlated Gaussian field $X$ in $d$ dimensions. For all $\gamma \in (-\sqrt{2d},\sqrt{2d})$, we show that the derivatives $\frac{\partial^k}{\partial\gamma^k} :e^{\gamma X_\epsilon}:$ of the regularised Gaussian…

We investigate the phase diagram of a self-avoiding walk model of a 3-star polymer in two dimensions, adsorbing at a surface and being desorbed by the action of a force. We show rigorously that there are four phases: a free phase, a…

Currently, much interest is drawn to the analysis of optical and matter-wave modes supported by the fractional diffraction in nonlinear media. We predict a new type of such states, in the form of domain walls (DWs) in the two-component…

Some recent work pointed out the usefulness of taking a large-deviation perspective when trying to extract anything resembling a macroscopic order parameter from a computer simulation. In this paper we note that the end-to-end distance of…

Deterministic walks over a random set of points in one and two dimensions (d=1,2) are considered. Points (``cities'') are randomly scattered in R^d following a uniform distribution. A walker (a ``tourist''), at each time step, goes to the…
