We study gradient models on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with non-convex interactions. These Gibbs fields (lattice models with continuous spin) emerge in various branches of physics and mathematics. In quantum field theory they appear as…

Two-dimensional random surfaces are studied numerically by the dynamical triangulation method. In order to generate various kinds of random surfaces, two higher derivative terms are added to the action. The phases of surfaces in the…

We study random surfaces with a uniformly convex gradient interaction in the presence of quenched disorder taking the form of a random independent external field. Previous work on the model has focused on proving existence and uniqueness of…

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 consider two versions of random gradient models. In model A the interface feels a bulk term of random fields while in model B the disorder enters through the potential acting on the gradients. It is well known that for gradient models…

When a rigid rough solid slides on a rigid rough surface, it experiences a random motion in the direction normal to the average contact plane. Here, through simulations of the separation at single-point contact between self-affine…

We study the fluctuations of random surfaces on a two-dimensional discrete torus. The random surfaces we consider are defined via a nearest-neighbor pair potential which we require to be twice continuously differentiable on a (possibly…

We consider d-dimensional random surface models which for d=1 are the standard (tied-down) random walks (considered as a random ``string''). In higher dimensions, the one-dimensional (discrete) time parameter of the random walk is replaced…

Given $2n$ unit equilateral triangles, there are finitely many ways to glue each edge to a partner. We obtain a random sphere-homeomorphic surface by sampling uniformly from the gluings that produce a topological sphere. As $n$ tends to…

In this paper, we present a fine-grained analysis of the local landscape of phase retrieval under the regime of limited samples. Specifically, we aim to ascertain the minimal sample size required to guarantee a benign local landscape…

We consider the motion of a discrete random surface interacting by exclusion with a random wall. The heights of the wall at the sites of $\Z^d$ are i.i.d.\ random variables. Fixed the wall configuration, the dynamics is given by the serial…

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 a gradient interface model on the lattice with interaction potential which is a non-convex perturbation of a convex potential. We show using a one-step multiple scale analysis the strict convexity of the surface tension at high…

We obtain an improved finite-sample guarantee on the linear convergence of stochastic gradient descent for smooth and strongly convex objectives, improving from a quadratic dependence on the conditioning $(L/\mu)^2$ (where $L$ is a bound on…

We initiate the study of random iteration of automorphisms of real and complex projective surfaces, or more generally compact K{\"a}hler surfaces, focusing on the fundamental problem of classification of stationary measures. We show that,…

The dynamics of the discrete Gaussian model for the surface of a crystal deposited on a disordered substrate is investigated by Monte Carlo simulations. The mobility of the growing surface was studied as a function of a small driving force…

We measure by Monte Carlo simulations $\g_{string}$ for a model of random surfaces embedded in three dimensional Euclidean space-time. The action of the string is the usual Polyakov action plus an extrinsic curvature term. The system…

We study the vicinal surface of the restricted solid-on-solid model coupled with the Langmuir adsorbates which we regard as two-dimensional lattice gas without lateral interaction. The effect of the vapor pressure of the adsorbates in the…

We study random graphs with latent geometric structure, where the probability of each edge depends on the underlying random positions corresponding to the two endpoints. We focus on the setting where this conditional probability is a…

We consider the (scalar) gradient fields $\eta=(\eta_b)$--with $b$ denoting the nearest-neighbor edges in $\Z^2$--that are distributed according to the Gibbs measure proportional to $\texte^{-\beta H(\eta)}\nu(\textd\eta)$. Here…
