Polymer pinning in a random medium as influence percolation

Vincent Beffara, Vladas Sidoravicius, Herbert Spohn +1

In this article we discuss a set of geometric ideas which shed some light on the question of directed polymer pinning in the presence of bulk disorder. Differing from standard meth…

Pinning of polymers and interfaces by random potentials

Kenneth S. Alexander, Vladas Sidoravicius

We consider a polymer, with monomer locations modeled by the trajectory of a Markov chain, in the presence of a potential that interacts with the polymer when it visits a particula…
