The talk will focus on recent developments regarding the (near-)critical behaviour of certain statistical physics models with long-range dependence in dimensions larger than 2, but smaller than 6, above which mean-field behaviour is known to set in. This “intermediate” regime remains a great challenge for mathematicians. The models revolve around a certain percolation phase transition that brings into play very natural probabilistic objects, such as random walk traces and the Gaussian free field.
