An identity in distribution between full-space and half-space log-gamma polymers

Résumé

We prove an identity in distribution between two kinds of partition functions for the log-gamma directed polymer model: (1) the point-to-point partition function in a quadrant, (2) the point-to-line partition function in an octant. As an application, we prove that the point-to-line free energy of the log-gamma polymer in an octant obeys a phase transition depending on the strength of the noise along the boundary. This transition of (de)pinning by randomness was first predicted in physics by Kardar in 1985 and proved rigorously for zero temperature models by Baik and Rains in 2001. While it is expected to arise universally for models in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class, this is the first positive temperature model for which this transition can be rigorously established.
