Stein's (1972) method is a very general tool for assessing the quality of approximation of the distribution of a random element by another, often simpler, distribution. In applications of Stein's method, one needs to establish a Stein…

We consider the Ising model on the square lattice with biaxially correlated random ferromagnetic couplings, the critical point of which is fixed by self-duality. The disorder represents a relevant perturbation according to the extended…

We consider a two-dimensional Ising model with random i.i.d. nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic couplings and no external magnetic field. We show that, if the probability of supercritical couplings is small enough, the system admits a…
In this paper, we establish the stability of the quasineutral limit for the ionic Vlasov-Poisson system under perturbations exponentially small in Wasserstein sense. Notably, we emphasize that exponential smallness is a necessary condition…
We prove convergence of the 2- and 4-point fermionic observables of the FK-Ising model on simply connected domains discretised by a planar isoradial lattice in massive (near-critical) scaling limit. The former is alternatively known as a…
A transient Poisson-Nernst-Planck system with steric effects is analyzed in a bounded domain with no-flux boundary conditions for the ion concentrations and mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions for the electric potential. The steric…
In this paper, we study two specific types of $d$-dimensional Poisson functionals: a double-sum type and a sum-log-sum type, both over pairs of Poisson points. On these functionals, we impose column-type dependence, i.e., local behavior in…
The lace expansion has been a powerful tool for investigating mean-field behavior for various stochastic-geometrical models, such as self-avoiding walk and percolation, above their respective upper-critical dimension. In this paper, we…
