Large deviations for partition functions of directed polymers in an IID field

Iddo Ben-Ari (2009)

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

Consider the partition function of a directed polymer in ℤd, d≥1, in an IID field. We assume that both tails of the negative and the positive part of the field are at least as light as exponential. It is well known that the free energy of the polymer is equal to a deterministic constant for almost every realization of the field and that the upper tail of the large deviations is exponential. The lower tail of the large deviations is typically lighter than exponential. In this paper we obtain sharp...

Large scale behavior of semiflexible heteropolymers

Francesco Caravenna, Giambattista Giacomin, Massimiliano Gubinelli (2010)

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

We consider a general discrete model for heterogeneous semiflexible polymer chains. Both the thermal noise and the inhomogeneous character of the chain (the disorder) are modeled in terms of random rotations. We focus on the quenched regime, i.e., the analysis is performed for a given realization of the disorder. Semiflexible models differ substantially from random walks on short scales, but on large scales a brownian behavior emerges. By exploiting techniques from tensor analysis and non-commutative...

Limit laws for the energy of a charged polymer

Xia Chen (2008)

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

In this paper we obtain the central limit theorems, moderate deviations and the laws of the iterated logarithm for the energy Hn=∑1≤j<k≤nωjωk1{Sj=Sk} of the polymer {S1, …, Sn} equipped with random electrical charges {ω1, …, ωn}. Our approach is based on comparison of the moments between Hn and the self-intersection local time Qn=∑1≤j<k≤n1{Sj=Sk} run by the d-dimensional random walk {Sk}. As partially needed for our main objective and partially motivated by their independent interest,...
