Annealed vs quenched critical points for a random walk pinning model

Matthias Birkner, Rongfeng Sun (2010)

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

We study a random walk pinning model, where conditioned on a simple random walk Y on ℤd acting as a random medium, the path measure of a second independent simple random walk X up to time t is Gibbs transformed with hamiltonian −Lt(X, Y), where Lt(X, Y) is the collision local time between X and Y up to time t. This model arises naturally in various contexts, including the study of the parabolic Anderson model with moving catalysts, the parabolic Anderson model with brownian noise, and the directed...

Around 3D Boltzmann non linear operator without angular cutoff, a new formulation

Radjesvarane Alexandre (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We propose a new formulation of the 3D Boltzmann non linear operator, without assuming Grad's angular cutoff hypothesis, and for intermolecular laws behaving as 1/rs, with s> 2. It involves natural pseudo differential operators, under a form which is analogous to the Landau operator. It may be used in the study of the associated equations, and more precisely in the non homogeneous framework.

Asymptotic behaviour of stochastic systems with conditionally exponential decay property

Agnieszka Jurlewicz, Aleksander Weron, Karina Weron (1996)

Applicationes Mathematicae

A new class of CED systems, providing insight into behaviour of physical disordered materials, is introduced. It includes systems in which the conditionally exponential decay property can be attached to each entity. A limit theorem for the normalized minimum of a CED system is proved. Employing different stable schemes the universal characteristics of the behaviour of such systems are derived.

Asymptotic Feynman–Kac formulae for large symmetrised systems of random walks

Stefan Adams, Tony Dorlas (2008)

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

We study large deviations principles for N random processes on the lattice ℤd with finite time horizon [0, β] under a symmetrised measure where all initial and terminal points are uniformly averaged over random permutations. That is, given a permutation σ of N elements and a vector (x1, …, xN) of N initial points we let the random processes terminate in the points (xσ(1), …, xσ(N)) and then sum over all possible permutations and initial points, weighted with an initial distribution. We prove level-two...

Asymptotic shape for the chemical distance and first-passage percolation on the infinite Bernoulli cluster

Olivier Garet, Régine Marchand (2004)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

The aim of this paper is to extend the well-known asymptotic shape result for first-passage percolation on d to first-passage percolation on a random environment given by the infinite cluster of a supercritical Bernoulli percolation model. We prove the convergence of the renormalized set of wet vertices to a deterministic shape that does not depend on the realization of the infinite cluster. As a special case of our result, we obtain an asymptotic shape theorem for the chemical distance in supercritical...

Asymptotics of counts of small components in random structures and models of coagulation-fragmentation

Boris L. Granovsky (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence (in the sense of finite dimensional distributions) of multiplicative measures on the set of partitions. The multiplicative measures depict distributions of component spectra of random structures and also the equilibria of classic models of statistical mechanics and stochastic processes of coagulation-fragmentation. We show that the convergence of multiplicative measures is equivalent to the asymptotic independence of counts of...

Asymptotics of the partition function of a random matrix model

Pavel M. Bleher, Alexander Its (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We prove a number of results concerning the large N asymptotics of the free energy of a random matrix model with a polynomial potential. Our approach is based on a deformation of potential and on the use of the underlying integrable structures of the matrix model. The main results include the existence of a full asymptotic expansion in even powers of N of the recurrence coefficients of the related orthogonal polynomials for a one-cut regular potential and the double scaling asymptotics of the free...

Atomistic to Continuum limits for computational materials science

Xavier Blanc, Claude Le Bris, Pierre-Louis Lions (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The present article is an overview of some mathematical results, which provide elements of rigorous basis for some multiscale computations in materials science. The emphasis is laid upon atomistic to continuum limits for crystalline materials. Various mathematical approaches are addressed. The setting is stationary. The relation to existing techniques used in the engineering literature is investigated.

Bethe Ansatz and the geography of rigged strings

Tadeusz Lulek (2007)

Banach Center Publications

We demonstrate the way in which composition of two famous combinatorial bijections, of Robinson-Schensted and Kerov-Kirillov-Reshetikhin, applied to the Heisenberg model of magnetic ring with spin 1/2, defines the geography of rigged strings (which label exact eigenfunctions of the Bethe Ansatz) on the classical configuration space (the set of all positions of the system of r reversed spins). We point out that each l-string originates, in the language of this bijection, from an island of l consecutive...
