Sharp asymptotics for metastability in the random field Curie-Weiss model.
Les processus de Schramm-Loewner (SLE) induisent des courbes aléatoires du plan complexe, qui vérifient une propriété d’invariance conforme. Ce sont des outils fondamentaux pour la compréhension du comportement asymptotique en régime critique de certains modèles discrets intervenant en physique statistique ; ils ont permis notamment d’établir rigoureusement certaines conjectures importantes dans ce domaine.
For a finite measure Λ on [0, 1], the Λ-coalescent is a coalescent process such that, whenever there are b clusters, each k-tuple of clusters merges into one at rate ∫01xk−2(1−x)b−kΛ(dx). It has recently been shown that if 1<α<2, the Λ-coalescent in which Λ is the Beta (2−α, α) distribution can be used to describe the genealogy of a continuous-state branching process (CSBP) with an α-stable branching mechanism. Here we use facts about CSBPs to establish new results about the small-time...
In this paper we establish a decoupling feature of the random interlacement process at level , . Roughly speaking, we show that observations of restricted to two disjoint subsets and of are approximately independent, once we add a sprinkling to the process by slightly increasing the parameter . Our results differ from previous ones in that we allow the mutual distance between the sets and to be much smaller than their diameters. We then provide an important application of this...
We give an accurate asymptotic estimate for the gap of the generator of a particular interacting particle system. The model we consider may be informally described as follows. A certain number of charged particles moves on the segment [1,L] according to a Markovian law. One unitary charge, positive or negative, jumps from a site k to another site k'=k+1 or k'=k-1 at a rate which depends on the charge at site k and at site k'. The total charge of the system is preserved by the dynamics, in...
