We study a diffusion approximation for a model of stochastic motion of a particle in one spatial dimension. The velocity of the particle is constant but the direction of the motion undergoes random changes with a Poisson clock. Moreover,…

A variational method that allows for replica-symmetry breaking is applied to directed polymers in an (N+1)-dimensional disordered medium. The noise studied here has gaussian correlations, i.e. it is short-ranged. In dimensions N<2, the…

We investigate the fractional diffusion approximation of a kinetic equation set in a bounded interval with diffusive reflection conditions at the boundary. In an appropriate singular limit corresponding to small Knudsen number and long time…

We consider a family of one-dimensional diffusions, in dynamical Wiener mediums, which are random perturbations of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck diffusion process. We prove quenched and annealed convergences in distribution and under weighted…

We consider the motion of a particle governed by a weakly random Hamiltonian flow. We identify temporal and spatial scales on which the particle trajectory converges to a spatial Brownian motion. The main technical issue in the proof is to…

We investigate the vibrational properties of topologically disordered materials by analytically studying particles that harmonically oscillate around random positions. Exploiting classical field theory in the thermodynamic limit at $T=0$,…

The propagation of acoustic waves in a poro-elastic medium of infinite extension containing spherical cavities randomly distributed is investigated. The scattering coefficients are computed in the low frequency limit using the sealed pore…

A wave pulse (be it a gravitational wave or a light wave) undergoes anomalous dispersion in a vacuum in flat spacetimes with an even number of spatial dimensions even if all the frequencies move at the same speed. Such an anomalous…

Two-frequency Wigner distribution is introduced to capture the asymptotic behavior of the space-frequency correlation of paraxial waves in the radiative transfer limits. The scaling limits give rises to deterministic transport-like…

We establish the self-averaging properties of the Wigner transform of a mixture of states in the regime when the correlation length of the random medium is much longer than the wave length but much shorter than the propagation distance. The…

We consider random Schr\"odinger equations on $\bZ^d$ for $d\ge 3$ with identically distributed random potential. Denote by $\lambda$ the coupling constant and $\psi_t$ the solution with initial data $\psi_0$. The space and time variables…

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 prove propagation of chaos at explicit polynomial rates in Wasserstein distance W_2 for Kac's N-particle system associated with the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for Maxwell molecules, with and without cutoff. Our approach is…

We consider the long time evolution of a quantum particle weakly interacting with a phonon field. We show that in the weak coupling limit the Wigner distribution of the electron density matrix converges to the solution of the linear…

We consider Berry's random planar wave model (1977), and prove spatial functional limit theorems - in the high-energy limit - for discretized and truncated versions of the random field obtained by restricting its nodal length to rectangular…

The scaled standard Wigner matrix (symmetric with mean zero, variance one i.i.d. entries), and its limiting eigenvalue distribution, namely the semi-circular distribution, has attracted much attention. The $2k$th moment of the limit equals…

We investigate the low density limit of the Homogeneous Electron system, often called the {\it Strictly Correlated} regime. We begin with a systematic presentation of the expansion around infinite $r_S$, based on the first quantized…

We present a quantitative analysis of the Boltzmann-Grad (low-density) limit of a hard sphere system. We introduce and study a set of functions (correlation errors) measuring the deviations in time from the statistical independence of…

Disordered mechanical systems with high connectivity represent a limit opposite to the more familiar case of disordered crystals. Individual ions in a crystal are subjected essentially to nearest-neighbor interactions. In contrast, the…

Disorder is more the rule than the exception in natural and synthetic materials. Nonetheless, wave propagation within inhomogeneously disordered materials has received scant attention. We combine microwave experiments and theory to find the…
