Metastability for general dynamics with rare transitions: escape time and critical configurations

Emilio Cirillo, Francesca Nardi, Julien Sohier

Metastability is a physical phenomenon ubiquitous in first order phase transitions. A fruitful mathematical way to approach this phenomenon is the study of rare transitions Markov…

Conditioned, quasi-stationary, restricted measures and escape from metastable states

Roberto Fernandez, Francesco Manzo, Francesca Nardi +2

We study the asymptotic hitting time of a family of Markov processes to a target set when the process starts from a trap defined by very general prope…

Hierarchical pinning model: low disorder relevance in the case

Julien Sohier

We consider a hierarchical pinning model introduced by B.Derrida, V.Hakim and J.Vannimenus which undergoes a localization/delocalization phase transition. This model depends on two…

The scaling limits of the non critical strip wetting model

Julien Sohier

The strip wetting model is defined by giving a (continuous space) one dimensionnal random walk a reward $\gb$ each time it hits the strip (where is a…

A comparison between different cycle decompositions for Metropolis dynamics

Emilio N. M. Cirillo, Francesca R. Nardi, Julien Sohier

In the last decades the problem of metastability has been attacked on rigorous grounds via many different approaches and techniques which are briefly reviewed in this paper. It is…
