## Propagation of critical behavior for unitary invariant plus GUE random matrices

Event Date: Nov 24, 2016 in Núcleo Modelos Estocásticos de Sistemas Complejos y Desordenados, Seminars

Abstract: It is a well known and celebrated fact that the eigenvalues of random Hermitian matrices from a unitary invariant ensemble form a determinantal point process with correlation kernel given in terms of a system of orthogonal polynomials on the real line. It is a much more recent result that the eigenvalues of the sum of such a random matrix with a matrix from the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE) also forms a determinantal point process, with the kernel given in terms of the Weierstrass transform of the original kernel. I’ll talk about the case in which the limiting distribution of...

## TWO-VALUED ENSEMBLE OF THE GAUSSIAN FREE FIELD.

Event Date: Sep 15, 2016 in Núcleo Modelos Estocásticos de Sistemas Complejos y Desordenados, Seminars

ABSTRACT: The goal of this talk is to understand thin local sets of the continuous Gaussian free filed (GFF) in a domain of R^2, whose corresponding harmonic function takes only two values. We give a characterization of these sets and use it to show that in some sense they are maximal in a bigger class of local sets, where we only ask the function to be bounded. Important corollaries of this work are new constructions of the Conformal Loop Ensemble CLE_4 and a new perspective on the two known couplings between CLE_4 and the GFF. Joint work wiht JUHAN ARU and WENDELIN...

## Limiting laws for some integrated processes

Event Date: Aug 11, 2016 in Núcleo Modelos Estocásticos de Sistemas Complejos y Desordenados, Seminars

Resumen: The study of limiting laws, or penalizations, of a given process may be seen (in some sense) as a way to condition a probability law by an a.s. infinite random variable. The systematic study of such problems started in 2006 with a series of papers by Roynette, Vallois and Yor who looked at Brownian motion perturbed by several examples of functionals. These works were then generalized to many families of processes: random walks, Lévy processes, linear diffusions… We shall present here some examples of penalization of a non-Markov process, i.e. the integrated Brownian motion, by its...

## Phase Transitions on the Long Range Ising Models in presence of an random external field

Event Date: Jul 25, 2016 in Núcleo Modelos Estocásticos de Sistemas Complejos y Desordenados, Seminars

Resumen: We study the ferromagnetic one-dimensiosnal Random Field Ising Model with (RFIM) in presence of an external random field. The interaction between two spins decays as $d^{\alpha-2}$ where $d$ is the distance between two sites and $\alpha \in [0,1/2)$ is a parameter of the model. We consider an external random field on $\mathbb{Z}$ with independent but not identically distributed random variables. Specifically for each $i \in \mathbb{Z}$, the distribution of $h_i$ is $P[h_i=\pm \theta(1+|i|)^{-\nu/2}]$. This work, whose main goal is the study of the existence of a phase transition at...

## The log-Sobolev inequality for unbounded spin systems on the lattice. & Scaling limit of subcritical contact process.

Event Date: Jun 13, 2016 in Núcleo Modelos Estocásticos de Sistemas Complejos y Desordenados, Seminars

PRIMERA PARTE: Expositor: Ioannis Papageorgiou (UBA) Titulo: The log-Sobolev inequality for unbounded spin systems on the lattice. Resumen: A criterion will be presented for the log-Sobolev inequality for unbounded spin systems on the lattice with non-quadratic interactions. This is a joint work with Takis Konstantopoulos (Uppsala) and James Inglis (INRIA). Furthermore, in the case of quadratic interactions, a perturbation result for the inequality will be presented. SEGUNDA PARTE: Expositora: Aurelia Deshayes (UBA) Titulo: Scaling limit of subcritical contact process Resumen: I will talk...
