We use the mapping between Burgers' equation and the problem of a directed polymer in a random medium in order to study the fully developped turbulence in the $N$ dimensional forced Burgers' equation. The stirring force corresponds to a…
Directed paths have been used extensively in the scientific literature as a model of a linear polymer. Such paths models in particular the conformational entropy of a linear polymer and the effects it has on the free energy. These directed…
In this paper, we consider directed polymers in random environment with discrete space and time. For transverse dimension at least equal to 3, we prove that diffusivity holds for the path in the full weak disorder region, i.e., where the…
We study the statistical properties of one-dimensional directed polymers in a short-range random potential by mapping the replicated problem to a many body quantum boson system with attractive interactions. We find the full set of…
Using the observation that configurations of N polymers with hard core interactions on a closed random surface correspond to random surfaces with N boundary components we calculate the free energy of a gas of polymers interacting with fully…
We present a unified scaling theory for the structural behavior of polymers embedded in a disordered energy substrate. An optimal polymer configuration is defined as the polymer configuration that minimizes the sum of interacting energies…
We study the depinning phase transition of a directed polymer in a $d$-dimensional space by a periodic potential localized on a straight line. We give exact formulas in all dimensions for the critical pinning we need to localize the…
We consider the problem of an ideal polymer confined in a droplet. When the droplet radius is smaller than the (unconfined) polymer radius of gyration, the polymer entropy will depend on the droplet shape. We compute the resulting surface…
In this paper, we consider four integrable models of directed polymers for which the free energy is known to exhibit KPZ fluctuations. A common framework for the analysis of these models was introduced in our recent work on the…
By analyzing the real space nonequilibrium dynamics of polymers, we elucidate the physics of driven translocation and propose its dynamical scaling scenario analogous to that in the surface growth phenomena. We provide a detailed account of…
The interaction of polymers with small-scale velocity gradients can trigger a coil-stretch transition in the polymers. We analyze this transition within a direct numerical simulation of shear turbulence with an Oldroyd-B model for the…
We study the partition function of two versions of the continuum directed polymer in 1+1 dimension. In the full-space version, the polymer starts at the origin and is free to move transversally in the reals, and in the half-space version,…
The explicit expression for the two-time free energy distribution function in one-dimensional directed polymers in random potential is derived in terms of the Bethe ansatz replica technique by mapping the replicated problem to the…
We study the behavior of the elastic polymer, a model of a directed polymer in a continuous Gaussian random environment that is independent in time and correlated in space, as the dimension of the environment is taken to infinity. We give…
In this article we study a \emph{non-directed polymer model} on $\mathbb Z$, that is a one-dimensional simple random walk placed in a random environment. More precisely, the law of the random walk is modified by the exponential of the sum…
In this paper, we study the localization length of the $1+1$ continuum directed polymer, defined as the distance between the endpoints of two paths sampled independently from the quenched polymer measure. We show that the localization…
We study the scaling properties of polymers in a d-dimensional medium with quenched defects that have power law correlations ~r^{-a} for large separations r. This type of disorder is known to be relevant for magnetic phase transitions. We…
In this paper we obtain the central limit theorems, moderate deviations and the laws of the iterated logarithm for the energy \[H_n=\sum_{1\le j<k\le n}\omega_j\omega_k1_{\{S_j=S_k\}}\] of the polymer $\{S_1,...,S_n\}$ equipped with random…
The effects of two types of randomness on the behaviour of directed polymers are discussed in this chapter. The first part deals with the effect of randomness in medium so that a directed polymer feels a random external potential. The…
We consider the model of directed polymers in a random environment introduced by Petermann : the random walk is $\mathbb{R}^d$-valued and has independent gaussian $N(0,I_d)$-increments, and the random media is a stationary centred Gaussian…
