We establish Tracy-Widom asymptotics for the partition function of a random polymer model with gamma-distributed weights recently introduced by Sepp\"al\"ainen. We show that the partition function of this random polymer can be represented…

We introduce the new combinatorial approach of plethystic type of tableaux, as a method to understand coefficients of Schur functions appearing in plethysms $s_\nu[h_\lambda]$ and $s_{\nu}[e_{\lambda}]$, for any partitions $\lambda$ and…

In this note we present new examples of determinantal point processes with infinitely many particles. The particles live on the half-lattice {1,2,...} or on the open half-line (0,+\infty). The main result is the computation of the…

We introduce in this paper two dimensional lattice models whose continuum limit belongs to the $N=2$ series. The first kind of model is integrable and obtained through a geometrical reformulation, generalizing results known in the $k=1$…

We discuss variational formulas for the limits of certain models of motion in a random medium: namely, the limiting time constant for last-passage percolation and the limiting free energy for directed polymers. The results are valid for…

A ring polymer is a random walk whose steps obey a single linear condition; their sum vanishes. Factoring the graph Laplacian into the product of the incidence matrix and its transpose allows us to show that for a more complicated network,…

We present efficient algorithms to calculate trajectories for periodic Lorentz gases consisting of square lattices of circular obstacles in two dimensions, and simple cubic lattices of spheres in three dimensions; these become increasingly…

This paper is devoted to the study of general (Laurent) polynomial modifications of moment functionals on the unit circle, i.e., associated with hermitian Toeplitz matrices. We present a new approach which allows us to study polynomial…

For a long time one has associated to the Quantum Heisenberg Ferromagnet on a lattice, a random walk on the permutation group of the lattice vertices. We here present a polymer expansion for the solution of the heat equation coupled to the…

While stretching of a polymer along a flat surface is hardly different from the classical Pincus problem of pulling chain ends in free space, the role of curved geometry in conformational statistics of the stretched chain is an exciting…

After fifty years of lattice gauge theories (LGTs), the nature of the transition between their topological phases (confinement/deconfinement) remains challenging due to the absence of a local order parameter. In this work, we conduct a…

We study the directed polymer model in dimension ${1+1}$ when the environment is heavy-tailed, with a decay exponent $\alpha\in(0,2)$. We give all possible scaling limits of the model in the weak-coupling regime, i.e., when the inverse…

We analyze a random walk strategy on undirected regular networks involving power matrix functions of the type $L^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$ where $L$ indicates a `simple' Laplacian matrix. We refer such walks to as `Fractional Random Walks' with…

This is a pedagogical review of the subject of linear polymers on deterministic finitely ramified fractals. For these, one can determine the critical properties exactly by real-space renormalization group technique. We show how this is used…

We study the multi-time distribution in a discrete polynuclear growth model or, equivalently, in directed last-passage percolation with geometric weights. A formula for the joint multi-time distribution function is derived in the discrete…

Molecules with complex internal structure in time-dependent periodic potentials are studied by using short Rubinstein-Duke model polymers as an example. We extend our earlier work on transport in stochastically varying potentials to cover…

In this article we study a one dimensional model for a polymer in a poor solvent: the random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ penalized by its range. More precisely, we consider a Gibbs transformation of the law of the simple symmmetric random walk by…

We consider the statistical mechanics of a random polymer with random walks and disorders in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The walk collects random disorders along the way and gets nothing if it visits the same site twice. In the continuum and weak…

In last passage percolation models lying in the KPZ universality class, the energy of long energy-maximizing paths may be studied as a function of the paths' pair of endpoint locations. Scaled coordinates may be introduced, so that these…

The dynamics of a point particle in a periodic array of spherical scatterers converges, in the limit of small scatterer size, to a random flight process, whose paths are piecewise linear curves generated by a Markov process with memory two.…
