Functional Renormalization Group at Large N for Disordered Elastic Systems, and Relation to Replica Symmetry Breaking
Pierre Le Doussal, Kay Joerg Wiese
We study the replica field theory which describes the pinning of elastic manifolds of arbitrary internal dimension d in a random potential, with the aim of bridging the gap between…
Universal interface width distributions at the depinning threshold
Alberto Rosso, Werner Krauth, Pierre Le Doussal +2
We compute the probability distribution of the interface width at the depinning threshold, using recent powerful algorithms. It confirms the universality classes found previously.…
Specific heat of the quantum Bragg Glass
Gregory Schehr, Thierry Giamarchi, Pierre Le Doussal
We study the thermodynamics of the vibrational modes of a lattice pinned by impurity disorder in the absence of topological defects (Bragg glass phase). Using a replica variational…
Reaction Diffusion Models in One Dimension with Disorder
Pierre Le Doussal, Cecile Monthus
We study a large class of 1D reaction diffusion models with quenched disorder using a real space renormalization group method (RSRG) which yields exact results at large time. Parti…
Random Walks, Reaction-Diffusion, and Nonequilibrium Dynamics of Spin Chains in One-dimensional Random Environments
Daniel Fisher, Pierre Le Doussal, Cecile Monthus
Sinai's model of diffusion in one-dimension with random local bias is studied by a real space renormalization group which yields asymptotically exact long time results. The distrib…
Glassy trapping of manifolds in nonpotential random flows
Pierre Le Doussal, Kay Jörg Wiese
We study the dynamics of polymers and elastic manifolds in non potential static random flows. We find that barriers are generated from combined effects of elasticity, disorder and…
