SUMMARY:Last-Passage Percolation with constraints\, and applications to po
 lymers in random environment  - Quentin Berger (Paris)

DESCRIPTION:Hammersley’s Last-Passage Percolation (LPP) problem can be d
 escribed as follows: let m points be drawn uniformly and independently in 
 [0\,1]^2\, then what is the maximal number of points that can be collected
  by an up-right path? In this talk\, I will introduce a generalization of 
 this problem\, where the up-right condition is changed to a global conditi
 on on the path. Results on this new LPP with constraints are limited\, but
  they already have some applications\, in particular in the context of pol
 ymers in random environment.\n(Joint work with Niccolò Torri)
