Annealed upper tails for the energy of a charged polymer

Amine Asselah (2011)

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

Similarity:

We study the upper tails for the energy of a randomly charged symmetric and transient random walk. We assume that only charges on the same site interact pairwise. We consider estimates, that is when we average over both randomness, in dimension three or more. We obtain a large deviation principle, and an explicit rate function for a large class of charge distributions.

Planar Lorentz process in a random scenery

Françoise Pène (2009)

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

Similarity:

We consider the periodic planar Lorentz process with convex obstacles (and with finite horizon). In this model, a point particle moves freely with elastic reflection at the fixed convex obstacles. The random scenery is given by a sequence of independent, identically distributed, centered random variables with finite and non-null variance. To each obstacle, we associate one of these random variables. We suppose that each time the particle hits an obstacle, it wins the amount given by...

On the Maximum of a Branching Process Conditioned on the Total Progeny

Kerbashev, Tzvetozar (1999)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The maximum M of a critical Bienaymé-Galton-Watson process conditioned on the total progeny N is studied. Imbedding of the process in a random walk is used. A limit theorem for the distribution of M as N → ∞ is proved. The result is trasferred to the non-critical processes. A corollary for the maximal strata of a random rooted labeled tree is obtained.

Volume ratios in L p -spaces

Yehoram Gordon, Marius Junge (1999)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

There exists an absolute constant c 0 such that for any n-dimensional Banach space E there exists a k-dimensional subspace F ⊂ E with k≤ n/2 such that i n f e l l i p s o i d ε ⊂ B E ( v o l ( B E ) / v o l ( ε ) ) 1 / n ≤ c 0 i n f z o n o i d Z ⊂ B F ( v o l ( B F ) / v o l ( Z ) ) 1 / k . The concept of volume ratio with respect to ℓ p -spaces is used to prove the following distance estimate for 2 ≤ q ≤ p < ∞ : s u p F ⊂ ℓ p , d i m F = n i n f G ⊂ L q , d i m G = n d ( F , G ) ∼ c p q n ( q / 2 ) ( 1 / q - 1 / p ) .
