We consider random walk in a space-time random potential, also known as directed random polymer measures, on the planar square lattice with nearest-neighbor steps and general i.i.d. weights on the vertices. We construct covariant cocycles and use them to prove new results on existence, uniqueness/nonuniqueness, and asymptotic directions of semi-infinite polymer measures (solutions to the Dobrushin–Lanford–Ruelle equations). We also prove nonexistence of covariant or deterministically directed…

Busemann functions and semi-infinite O’Connell–Yor polymers
We prove that given any fixed asymptotic velocity, the finite length O'Connell-Yor polymer has an infinite length limit satisfying the law of large numbers with this velocity. By a Markovian property…
Dynamic polymers: invariant measures and ordering by noise
We develop a dynamical approach to infinite volume directed polymer measures in random environments. We define polymer dynamics in 1+1 dimension as a stochastic gradient flow on polymers pinned at…
Uniqueness and Ergodicity of Stationary Directed Polymers on $$\mathbb {Z}^2$$
We study the ergodic theory of stationary directed nearest neighbor polymer models on $\mathbb Z^2$, with i.i.d. weights. Such models are equivalent to specifying a stationary distribution on the…
Hausdorff dimensions for shared endpoints of disjoint geodesics in the directed landscape
Within the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class, the space-time Airy sheet is conjectured to be the canonical scaling limit for last passage percolation models. In recent work arXiv:1812.00309 of…
Negative correlation of adjacent Busemann increments
We consider i.i.d. last-passage percolation on Z2 with weights having distribution F and time-constant gF . We provide an explicit condition on the large deviation rate function for independent sums…
Coupling derivation of optimal-order central moment bounds in exponential last-passage percolation
TLDR
New probabilistic arguments are introduced to derive optimal-order central moment bounds in planar directed last-passage percolation in i.i.d. exponential weights for both zero and near-stationary boundary conditions.
