A $d$-dimensional elastic manifold at depinning is described by a renormalized field theory, based on the Functional Renormalization Group (FRG). Here we analyze this theory to 3-loop order, equivalent to third order in $\epsilon=4-d$,…

For disordered elastic manifolds in the ground state (equilibrium) we obtain the critical exponents for the roughness and the correction-to-scaling up to 3-loop order, i.e. third order in $\epsilon=4-d$, where $d$ is the internal dimension…

We investigate the roughening phase transition of a $(3+1)$-dimensional elastic manifold driven by the completion between a periodic pinning potential and a randomly distributed impurities. The elastic manifold is modeled by a…

We perform a high-precision calculation of the critical exponents for the long-range elastic string driven through quenched disorder at the depinning transition, at zero temperature. Large-scale simulations are used to avoid finite-size…

We study the roughening of $d$-dimensional directed elastic interfaces subject to quenched random forces. As in the Larkin model, random forces are considered constant in the displacement direction and uncorrelated in the perpendicular…

Within a recently developed framework of dynamical Monte Carlo algorithms, we compute the roughness exponent $\zeta$ of driven elastic strings at the depinning threshold in 1+1 dimensions for different functional forms of the (short-range)…

The pinning-depinning phase transitions of interfaces for two classes of discrete elastic-string models are investigated numerically. In the (1+1)-dimensions, we revisit these two elastic-string models with slight modification to growth…

Depinning of elastic systems advancing on disordered media can usually be described by the quenched Edwards-Wilkinson equation (qEW). However, additional ingredients such as anharmonicity and forces that can not be derived from a potential…

We obtain explicit expressions for the annealed complexities associated respectively with the total number of (i) stationary points and (ii) local minima of the energy landscape for an elastic manifold with internal dimension $d<4$ embedded…

We study the statics and dynamics of an elastic manifold in a disordered medium with quenched defects correlated as r^{-a} for large separation r. We derive the functional renormalization-group equations to one-loop order, which allow us to…

We study elastic manifolds in a N-dimensional random potential using functional RG. We extend to N>1 our previous construction of a field theory renormalizable to two loops. For isotropic disorder with O(N) symmetry we obtain the fixed…

We study the non-steady relaxation of a driven one-dimensional elastic interface at the depinning transition by extensive numerical simulations concurrently implemented on graphics processing units (GPUs). We compute the time-dependent…

We investigate the depinning of a massive elastic manifold with $d$ internal dimensions, embedded in a $(d+n)$-dimensional space, and subject to an isotropic pinning potential $V({\bf u})=V(|{\bf u}|).$ The tunneling process is driven by a…

We reconsider the problem of the static thermal roughening of an elastic manifold at the critical dimension $d=2$ in a periodic potential, using a perturbative Functional Renormalization Group approach. Our aim is to describe the effective…

Motivated by the problem of weak collective pinning of vortex lattices in high-temperature superconductors, we study the model system of a four-dimensional elastic manifold with N transverse degrees of freedom (4+N-model) in a quenched…

The depinning transition of elastic interfaces with an elastic interaction kernel decaying as $1/r^{d+\sigma}$ is characterized by critical exponents which continuously vary with $\sigma$. These exponents are expected to be unique and…

Large scale numerical simulations are used to study the elastic dynamics of two-dimensional vortex lattices driven on a disordered medium in the case of weak disorder. We investigate the so-called elastic depinning transition by decreasing…

We study the depinning transitions of elastic strings in disordered media in two different cases. We consider the elastic forces to be of infinite range in one case, where the magnitude is proportional to the extension of the string. The…

This paper considers critical points of the length-penalized elastic bending energy among planar curves whose endpoints are fixed. We classify all critical points with an explicit parametrization. The classification strongly depends on a…

Spatially confined rigid membranes reorganize their morphology in response to the imposed constraints. A crumpled elastic sheet presents a complex pattern of random folds focusing the deformation energy while compressing a membrane resting…
