In this paper we consider heavy tailed Markov renewal processes and we prove that, suitably renormalised, they converge in law towards the $\ga$-stable regenerative set. We then apply these results to the strip wetting model which is a…

We consider a random field $\varphi:\{1,...,N\}\to \mathbb{R}$ with Laplacian interaction of the form $\sum_iV(\Delta\varphi_i)$, where $\Delta$ is the discrete Laplacian and the potential $V(\cdot)$ is symmetric and uniformly strictly…

We consider a random field $\varphi:\{1,...,N\}\to\mathbb{R}$ as a model for a linear chain attracted to the defect line $\varphi=0$, that is, the x-axis. The free law of the field is specified by the density…

The theory of interface localization in near-critical planar systems at phase coexistence is formulated from first principles. We show that mutual delocalization of two interfaces, amounting to interfacial wetting, occurs when the bulk…

We consider continuous and discrete (1+1)-dimensional wetting models which undergo a localization/delocalization phase transition. Using a simple approach based on Renewal Theory we determine the precise asymptotic behavior of the partition…

We consider a generalization of the classical pinning problem for integer-valued random walks conditioned to stay non-negative. More specifically, we take pinning potentials of the form $\sum_{j\geq 0}\epsilon_j N_j$, where $N_j$ is the…

We study the Anderson transition on a generic model of random graphs with a tunable branching parameter $1<K\le 2$, through large scale numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis. We find that a single transition separates a…

We consider wetting models in $1+1$ dimensions on a shrinking strip with a general pinning function. We show that under diffusive scaling, the interface converges in law to to the reflected Brownian motion, whenever the strip size is…

We investigate stripe patterns formation far from threshold using a combination of topological, analytic, and numerical methods. We first give a definition of the mathematical structure of `multi-valued' phase functions that are needed for…

We introduce a model for describing the defected growth of striped patterns. This model, while roughly related to the Swift-Hohenberg model, generates a quite different mixture of defects during phase ordering. We find two characteristic…

We consider the limit behavior of a one-dimensional random walk with unit jumps whose transition probabilities are modified every time the walk hits zero. The invariance principle is proved in the scheme of series where the size of…

Near a bifurcation point a system experiences critical slowing down. This leads to scaling behavior of fluctuations. We find that a periodically driven system may display three scaling regimes and scaling crossovers near a saddle-node…

We revisit the scaling properties of a model for non-equilibrium wetting [Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 2710 (1997)], correcting previous estimates of the critical exponents and providing a complete scaling scheme. Moreover, we investigate a special…

We study the localization/delocalization phase transition in a class of directed models for a homogeneous linear chain attracted to a defect line. The self-interaction of the chain is of mixed gradient and Laplacian kind, whereas the…

The spatial coverage produced by a single discrete-time random walk, with asymmetric jump probability $p\neq 1/2$ and non-uniform steps, moving on an infinite one-dimensional lattice is investigated. Analytical calculations are complemented…

We study the wetting model, which considers a random walk constrained to remain above a hard wall, but with additional pinning potential for each contact with the wall. This model is known to exhibit a wetting phase transition, from a…

We consider random walks evolving on two models of connected and undirected graphs and study the exact large deviations of a local dynamical observable. We prove, in the thermodynamic limit, that this observable undergoes a first-order…

We consider models of directed random polymers interacting with a defect line, which are known to undergo a pinning/depinning (or localization/delocalization) phase transition. We are interested in critical properties and we prove, in…

Up to now the raise and peel model was the single known example of a one-dimensional stochastic process where one can observe conformal invariance. The model has one-parameter. Depending on its value one has a gapped phase, a critical point…

The global phase diagram of wetting in the two-dimensional (2d) Ising model is obtained through exact calculation of the surface excess free energy. Besides a surface field for inducing wetting, a surface-coupling enhancement is included.…
