Non-relativistic particles that are effectively confined to two dimensions can in general move on curved surfaces, allowing dynamical phenomena beyond what can be described with scalar potentials or even vector gauge fields. Here we…

We provide a variational derivation of the limit shape of minimal difference partitions and discuss the link with exclusion statistics. Also see arXiv:0707.2312 for a related paper.

We characterise high-dimensional topology that arises from a random Cech complex constructed on the circle. Expected Euler characteristic curve is computed, where we observe limiting spikes. The spikes correspond to expected Betti numbers…

A discrete Gelfand-Tsetlin pattern is a configuration of particles in Z^2. The particles are arranged in a finite number of consecutive rows, numbered from the bottom. There is one particle on the first row, two particles on the second row,…

We obtain a new formula to relate the value of a Schur polynomial with variables $(x_1,\ldots,x_N)$ with values of Schur polynomials at $(1,\ldots,1)$. This allows to study the limit shape of perfect matchings on a square hexagon lattice…

We consider a generalization of the Schur process in which a partition evolves from the empty partition into an arbitrary fixed final partition. We obtain a double integral representation of the correlation kernel. For a special final…

We consider a one-dimensional diffusion process with coefficients that are periodic outside of a finite 'interface region'. The question investigated in this article is the limiting long time / large scale behaviour of such a process under…

In two-parameter bifurcation diagrams of piecewise-linear continuous maps on $\mathbb{R}^N$, mode-locking regions typically have points of zero width known as shrinking points. Near any shrinking point, but outside the associated…

Multiple Schramm-Loewner Evolutions (SLE) are conformally invariant random processes of several curves, whose construction by growth processes relies on partition functions: M\"obius covariant solutions to a system of second order partial…

The ``Brownian bees'' model describes an ensemble of $N=$~const independent branching Brownian particles. The conservation of $N$ is provided by a modified branching process. When a particle branches into two particles, the particle which…

The probability that a point is to one side of a curve in Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) can be obtained alternatively using boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). We extend the BCFT approach to treat two curves, forming, for example, the…

We study limit shapes for dimer models on domains of the hexagonal lattice with free boundary conditions. This is equivalent to the large deviation phenomenon for a random stepped surface over domains fixed only at part of the boundary.

We consider a Markov evolution of lozenge tilings of a quarter-plane and study its asymptotics at large times. One of the boundary rays serves as a reflecting wall. We observe frozen and liquid regions, prove convergence of the local…

A Gelfand-Tsetlin scheme of depth N is a triangular array with m integers at level m, m=1,...,N, subject to certain interlacing constraints. We study the ensemble of uniformly random Gelfand-Tsetlin schemes with arbitrary fixed N-th row. We…

We study probabilities of various rare events for the limiting point process that appears at the random matrix hard edge. We also show a transition from hard edge to bulk behavior. Asymptotic events studied include a central limit theorem…

Random growth models are fundamental objects in modern probability theory, have given rise to new mathematics, and have numerous applications, including tumor growth and fluid flow in porous media. In this article, we introduce some of the…

We give an upper bound for the degree of rational curves in a family that covers a given birational ruled surface in projective space. The upper bound is stated in terms of the degree, sectional genus and arithmetic genus of the surface. We…

We discuss asymptotics for large random planar maps under the assumption that the distribution of the degree of a typical face is in the domain of attraction of a stable distribution with index $\alpha\in(1,2)$. When the number $n$ of…

We consider a family of surfaces of revolution ranging between a disc and a hemisphere, that is spherical caps. For this family, we study the spectral density in the ray limit and arrive at a trace formula with geodesic polygons describing…

We discuss the scaling limit of large planar quadrangulations with a boundary whose length is of order the square root of the number of faces. We consider a sequence $(\sigma_n)$ of integers such that $\sigma_n/\sqrt{2n}$ tends to some…
