Non-directed polymers in heavy-tail random environment in dimension $d\geq 2$
Abstract
In this article we study a \emph{non-directed} polymer model in dimension : we consider a simple symmetric random walk on which interacts with a random environment, represented by i.i.d. random variables . The model consists in modifying the law of the random walk up to time (or length) by the exponential of where is the range of the walk, \textit{i.e.} the set of visited sites up to time , and are two parameters. We study the behavior of the model in a weak-coupling regime, that is taking vanishing as the length goes to infinity, and in the case where the random variables have a heavy tail with exponent . We are able to obtain precisely the behavior of polymer trajectories under all possible weak-coupling regimes with : we find the correct transversal fluctuation exponent for the polymer (it depends on and ) and we give the limiting distribution of the rescaled log-partition function. This extends existing works to the non-directed case and to higher dimensions.
