The scaling relation chi = 2 xi - 1 for directed polymers in a random environment

Abstract

We prove the scaling relation chi = 2 xi - 1 between the transversal exponent xi and the fluctuation exponent chi for directed polymers in a random environment in d dimensions. The definition of these exponents is similar to that proposed by S. Chatterjee in first-passage percolation. The proof presented here also establishes the relation in the zero temperature version of the model, known as last-passage percolation.
