Directed polymer in random environment and last passage percolation

Philippe Carmona — 2010

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

The sequence of random probability measures that gives a path of length , 1 n times the sum of the random weights collected along the paths, is shown to satisfy a large deviations principle with good rate function the Legendre transform of the free energy of the associated directed polymer in a random environment. Consequences on the asymptotics of the typical number of paths whose collected weight is above a fixed proportion are then drawn.

The spread of a catalytic branching random walk

Philippe CarmonaYueyun Hu — 2014

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

We consider a catalytic branching random walk on that branches at the origin only. In the supercritical regime we establish a law of large number for the maximal position M n : For some constant α , M n n α almost surely on the set of infinite number of visits of the origin. Then we determine all possible limiting laws for M n - α n as n goes to infinity.

The discrete-time parabolic Anderson model with heavy-tailed potential

Francesco CaravennaPhilippe CarmonaNicolas Pétrélis — 2012

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

We consider a discrete-time version of the parabolic Anderson model. This may be described as a model for a directed ( 1 + d ) -dimensional polymer interacting with a random potential, which is constant in the deterministic direction and i.i.d. in the d orthogonal directions. The potential at each site is a positive random variable with a polynomial tail at infinity. We show that, as the size of the system diverges, the polymer extremity is localized almost surely at one single point which grows ballistically....
