Directed polymers in a random environment is a classical model to study how random impurities affect a polymer chain. The half-space variant of directed polymers studies how polymer chains behave in presence of a wall. In this talk, I will focus on the half-space log-gamma polymer model which is integrable. I will discuss some of the recent results regarding transversal fluctuations of the free...
