Gaussian free field scaling conjecture for the percolation corrector

About 21 years old · traced to

Let χ(x,ω)\chi(x,\omega) be the corrector on the infinite percolation cluster, and let Δ\Delta be the Dirichlet Laplacian on Rd\mathbb R^d. Write 1\mathbf 1 for the dd-dimensional unit matrix. For x∈Rdx\in\mathbb R^d and [?][?] let ⌊x/ϵ⌋\lfloor x/\epsilon\rfloor denote the coordinatewise lattice approximation.

Corrector Gaussian free field conjecture. Let d≥1d\ge1. Then the law of

x↦ϵ2−d2χ(⌊xϵ⌋)x\mapsto\epsilon^{\frac{2-d}{2}}\chi\left(\left\lfloor\frac{x}{\epsilon}\right\rfloor\right)

on compact subsets of Rd\mathbb R^d converges weakly, as ϵ↓0\epsilon\downarrow0, to the Gaussian Free Field, namely a multivariate Gaussian field with covariance proportional to Δ−11\Delta^{-1}\mathbf 1.

This conjecture proposes a scaling limit for the corrector in all dimensions, complementing the high-dimensional tightness conjecture. The source describes it as a substantially less certain guess; it also notes that the corresponding one-dimensional statement with conductances bounded away from zero is a theorem.
