Abstract

We consider both the infinite-volume discrete Gaussian Free Field (DGFF) and the DGFF with zero boundary conditions outside a finite box in dimension larger or equal to 3. We show that the associated extremal process converges to a Poisson point process. The result follows from an application of the Stein-Chen method from Arratia et al. (1989).

Summary

Introduction

In this article we study the behavior of the extremal process of the DGFF in dimension larger or equal to 3 This extends the result presented in [9] in which the convergence of the rescaled maximum of the infinite-volume DGFF and the 0-boundary condition field was shown. The extremes of the DGFF in dimension 2 have deep connections with those of Branching Brownian Motion ([1, 2, 3, 4]) These works showed that the limiting point process is a randomly shifted decorated Poisson point process, and we refer to [15] for structural details.
