On the integer lattice we consider the discrete membrane model, a random interface in which the field has Laplacian interaction. We prove that, under appropriate rescaling, the discrete membrane model converges to the continuum membrane…
In this article we study the scaling limit of the interface model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ where the Hamiltonian is given by a mixed gradient and Laplacian interaction. We show that in any dimension the scaling limit is given by the Gaussian free…
We study the scaling limit of statistical mechanics models with non-convex Hamiltonians that are gradient perturbations of Gaussian measures. Characterising features of our gradient models are the imposed boundary tilt and the surface…
We study the density of specular reflection points in the geometrical optics limit when light scatters off fluctuating interfaces and membranes in thermodynamic equilibrium. We focus on the statistical mechanics of both capillary-gravity…
We study the scaling behavior of two-dimensional (2D) crystalline membranes in the flat phase by a renormalization group (RG) method and an $\epsilon$-expansion. Generalization of the problem to non-integer dimensions, necessary to control…
We consider models of gradient type, which are the densities of a collection of real-valued random variables $\phi :=\{\phi_x: x \in \Lambda\}$ given by $Z^{-1}\exp({-\sum\nolimits_{j \sim k}V(\phi_j-\phi_k)})$. We focus our study on the…
We consider the $\nabla \phi$ interface model with a uniformly convex interaction potential possessing H\"older continuous second derivatives. Combining ideas of Naddaf and Spencer with methods from quantitative homogenization, we show that…
We derive upper bounds on the fluctuations of a class of random surfaces of the $\nabla \phi$-type with convex interaction potentials. The Brascamp-Lieb concentration inequality provides an upper bound on these fluctuations for uniformly…
A discrete gradient model for interfaces is studied. The interaction potential is a non-convex perturbation of the quadratic gradient potential. Based on a representation for the finite volume Gibbs measure obtained via a renormalization…
The membrane model is a Gaussian interface model with a Hamiltonian involving second derivatives of the interface height. We consider the model in dimension $\mathsf{d}\ge4$ under the influence of $\delta$-pinning of strength $\varepsilon$.…
We consider gradient models on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$. These models serve as effective models for interfaces and are also known as continuous Ising models. The height of the interface is modelled by a random field with an energy which…
We study the dynamics of elastic interfaces-membranes-immersed in thermally excited fluids. The work contains three components: the development of a numerical method, a purely theoretical approach, and numerical simulation. In developing a…
In the last few years, the methods of constructive Fermionic Renormalization Group have been successfully applied to the study of the scaling limit of several two-dimensional statistical mechanics models at the critical point, including:…
The dynamical scaling properties of selfavoiding polymerized membranes with internal dimension D embedded into d dimensions are studied including hydrodynamical interactions. It is shown that the theory is renormalizable to all orders in…
We consider a semiflexible polymer in $\mathbb Z^d$ which is a random interface model with a mixed gradient and Laplacian interaction. The strength of the two operators is governed by two parameters called lateral tension and bending…
We consider three models of evolving interfaces intimately related to the weakly asymmetric simple exclusion process with $N$ particles on a finite lattice of $2N$ sites. Our Model 1 defines an evolving bridge on $[0,1]$, our Model 1-w an…
The mean ($\kappa$) and Gaussian ($\bar{\kappa}$) bending rigidities of liquid-liquid interfaces, of importance for shape fluctuations and topology of interfaces, respectively, are not yet established: even their signs are debated. Using…
The scaling properties of selfavoiding polymerized membranes are studied using renormalization group methods. The scaling exponent \nu is calculated for the first time at two loop order. \nu is found to agree with the Gaussian variational…
We study the massless field on $D_n = D \cap \tfrac{1}{n} \Z^2$, where $D \subseteq \R^2$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary, with Hamiltonian $\CH(h) = \sum_{x \sim y} \CV(h(x) - h(y))$. The interaction $\CV$ is assumed to be…
The continuous-space symbiotic branching model describes the evolution of two interacting populations that can reproduce locally only in the simultaneous presence of each other. If started with complementary Heaviside initial conditions,…
