In the same setup, we also show that the large deviation rate function agrees with that of the underlying random walk. In addition, for the Brownian polymer model, we show that the central limit theorem holds almost surely in the whole weak disorder phase. The results are proved using the moment bound from [20] and a new tool introduced in this paper, which allows a quantitative comparison between the associated martingales at different inverse temperatures. This comparison is made precise using the noise operator $T_\\rho$ acting on the environment by independent resampling.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-05-10T02:44:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K37" ], "keywords": [ "weak disorder phase", "large deviation rate function", "central limit theorem holds", "brownian polymer model", "bond disorder" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
