Disorder relevance at marginality and critical point shift

Giambattista Giacomin, Hubert Lacoin, Fabio Lucio Toninelli (2011)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Recently the renormalization group predictions on the effect of disorder on pinning models have been put on mathematical grounds. The picture is particularly complete if the disorder is relevant or irrelevant in the Harris criterion sense: the question addressed is whether quenched disorder leads to a critical behavior which is different from the one observed in the pure, i.e. annealed, system. The Harris criterion prediction is based on the sign of the specific heat exponent of the pure system,...

Disorder relevance for the random walk pinning model in dimension 3

Matthias Birkner, Rongfeng Sun (2011)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We study the continuous time version of the random walk pinning model, where conditioned on a continuous time random walk (Ys)s≥0 on ℤd with jump rate ρ > 0, which plays the role of disorder, the law up to time t of a second independent random walk (Xs)0≤s≤t with jump rate 1 is Gibbs transformed with weight eβLt(X,Y), where Lt(X, Y) is the collision local time between X and Y up to time t. As the inverse temperature β varies, the model undergoes a localization–delocalization transition at...
