Resumen de Random interlacements and the Gaussian free field
We consider continuous time random interlacements on Zd, d≥3, and characterize the distribution of the corresponding stationary random field of occupation times. When d=3, we relate this random field to the two-dimensional Gaussian free field pinned at the origin by looking at scaled differences of occupation times of long rods by random interlacements at appropriately tuned levels. In the main asymptotic regime, a scaling factor appears in the limit, which is independent of the free field, and distributed as the time-marginal of a zero-dimensional Bessel process. For arbitrary d≥3, we also relate the field of occupation times at a level tending to infinity, to the d-dimensional Gaussian free field.
