A universality property for last-passage percolation paths close to the axis
Thierry Bodineau ; James B. Martin ;
Date 3 Oct 2004
Subject Probability MSC-class: 60K35 | math.PR
AbstractWe consider a last-passage directed percolation model in $Z_+^2$, with i.i.d. weights whose common distribution has a finite $(2+p)$th moment. We study the fluctuations of the passage time from the origin to the point $ig(n,n^{lfloor a floor}ig)$. We show that, for suitable $a$ (depending on $p$), this quantity, appropriately scaled, converges in distribution as $n oinfty$ to the Tracy-Widom distribution, irrespective of the underlying weight distribution. The argument uses a coupling to a Brownian directed percolation problem and the strong approximation of Komlós, Major and Tusnády.
