2 Random permutations... with cycle weights with spatial structure We are looking for the distribution of long cycles! D. Ueltschi (Warwick) Prob., Comb., Stat. Mech. MASDOC 15 Mar / 13

3 Random permutations with cycle weights Random object: permutation π S n P n (π) = 1 Z n j 1 θ R j(π) j where R j (π) is the number of j-cycles in the permutation π Properties depend on parameters θ j. Results so far (obtained with Betz, Ercolani, Velenik): Parameters Typical cycle lengths Number of cycles Finite cycles θ n = e nγ, γ > 1 P n(l 1 = n) 1 K 1 R j 0 θ n e nγ, 0 < γ < 1 L 1 /( 1 1 γ log n)1/γ 1 R j Poisson` θ j j θ n n γ 1, γ > 0 L 1 /n γ+1 1 Gamma`γ +1, Γ(γ +1) γ+1 γ E n(k) An γ+1 R j Poisson` θ j j θ n θ L 1 /n Beta(1, θ) E n(k) θ log n R j Poisson` θ j j θ n = n γ, γ > 0, or θ n = e nγ L 1 /n 1 K 1 + Poisson( P θ j j, 0 < γ < 1 ) R j Poisson` θ j j γ 1 γ θ n = e nγ, γ > 1 L 1 /` 1 γ 1 log n 1/γ 1 En(R j ) exp jγ` log n γ 1 D.

4 Methods: Mix of probability & combinatorics Probability distribution of cycle that contains index 1 : P n (L 1 = j) = θ jz n j nz n Use theory of combinatorial structures to get expression for generating function of Z n Saddle point method to get Z n Project 1. More regimes to be studied, e.g. θ n n log n. Aim for more precise results! Theory of combinatorial structures also useful in the study of cluster expansions of statistical mechanics (work in progress with S. Tate) D. Ueltschi (Warwick) Prob., Comb., Stat. Mech. MASDOC 15 Mar / 13

5 Motivation to spatial permutations: quantum Bose gas N bosons in Λ R d State space L 2 sym(λ N ) Hamiltonian operator N H = U(x i x j ) i=1 i + i<j Feynman-Kac formula for Z = Tr e βh : with x = (x 1,..., x N ), Z = dx Λ N π S N e H(x,π) x with Hamiltonian 1 β π (1) H : Λ N S N R (Explicit expression for H in terms of Wiener trajectories) D.

6 Lattice permutations Random objects: permutations of Λ Z d (i.e. bijections Λ Λ ) P(π) = 1 Z(Λ) exp { 1 4β x π(x) 2} x Λ Mean jump length β Expected: critical value β c, with long cycles iff β > β c Project 2.
