We obtain sharp asymptotics for the probability that the (2+1)-dimensional discrete SOS interface at low temperature is positive in a large region. For a square region $\Lambda$, both under the infinite volume measure and under the measure…

We consider the Gibbs-measures of continuous-valued height configurations on the $d$-dimensional integer lattice in the presence a weakly disordered potential. The potential is composed of Gaussians having random location and random depth;…

We consider statistical mechanics models of continuous height effective interfaces in the presence of a delta-pinning at height zero. There is a detailed mathematical understanding of the depinning transition in 2 dimensions without…

For a family of integer-valued height functions defined over the faces of planar graphs, we establish a relation between the probability of connection by level sets and the spin-spin correlations of the dual $O(2)$ symmetric spin models…

Consider the classical $(2+1)$-dimensional Solid-On-Solid model above a hard wall on an $L\times L$ box of $\bbZ^2$. The model describes a crystal surface by assigning a non-negative integer height $\eta_x$ to each site $x$ in the box and 0…

Depinning of an interface from a random self--affine substrate with roughness exponent $\zeta_S$ is studied in systems with short--range interactions. In 2$D$ transfer matrix results show that for $\zeta_S<1/2$ depinning falls in the…

Electromagnetic decays of the scalar mesons are shown to be constrained by chiral symmetry as a consequence of the fact that, in the chiral limit, the two and three-point functions $<SS-PP>$ and $<VVS>$ satisfy super-convergent dispersion…

We apply new techniques developed in a previous paper to the study of some surface effects in the 2D Ising model. We examine in particular the pinning-depinning transition. The results are valid for all subcritical temperatures. By duality…

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 $\varepsilon$.…

Scaling properties of an interface representation of the critical contact process are studied in dimensions 1 - 3. Simulations confirm the scaling relation beta_W = 1 - theta between the interface-width growth exponent beta_W and the…

Numerical and analytical results are presented for the maximal relative height distribution of stationary periodic Gaussian signals (one dimensional interfaces) displaying a 1/f^alpha power spectrum. For 0<alpha<1 (regime of decaying…

We have discovered an unexpected and surprising fact: a 2D axially symmetric short-range potential contains {\it infinite} number of the levels of negative energy {\it if one takes into account the spin-orbit (SO) interaction.} For a…

Random fields in nature often have, to a good approximation, Gaussian characteristics. We present the mathematical framework for a new and simple method for investigating the non-Gaussian contributions, based on counting the maxima and…

Second order partial differential equations which describe spherical surfaces (ss) or pseudospherical surfaces (pss) are considered. These equations are equivalent to the structure equations of a metric with Gaussian curvature $K = 1$ or $K…

We establish half-space type results for a class of height-dependent weighted minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$, namely critical points of a weighted area functional whose weight depends on the height. When the weight has at most quadratic…

We study the typical height of the (2+1)-dimensional solid-on-solid surface with pinning interacting with an impenetrable wall in the delocalization phase. More precisely, let $\Lambda_N$ be a $N \times N$ box of $\mathbb{Z}^2$, and we…

Height fluctuations of growing surfaces can be characterized by the probability distribution of height in a spatial point at a finite time. Recently there has been spectacular progress in the studies of this quantity for the…

Using the two-point Edgeworth series up to second order we construct the weakly nonlinear conditional probability distribution function for the density field around an overdense region. This requires calculating the two-point analogues of…

In this article, we continue the study of $L^p$-boundedness of the maximal operator $\mathcal M_S$ associated to averages along isotropic dilates of a given, smooth hypersurface $S$ in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. We focus here on small…

Finite temperature density functional theory requires representations for the internal energy, entropy, and free energy as functionals of the local density field. A central formal difficulty for an orbital-free representation is…
