Local correlation functions of the two-periodic weighted Aztec diamond in mesoscopic limit

Abstract: Here we study the two-periodic weighted dimer model on the Aztec diamond graph. In the thermodynamic limit when the size of the graph goes to infinity while weights are fixed, the model develops a limit shape with frozen regions near corners, a flat diamond'' in the center with a noncritical (ordered) phase, and a disordered phase separating this diamond and the frozen phase. We show that in the mesoscopic scaling limit, when weights scale in the thermodynamic limit such that the size of theflat diamond'' is of the same order as the correlation length inside the diamond, fluctuations of the height function are described by a new process. We compute asymptotics of the inverse Kasteleyn matrix for vertices in a local neighborhood in this mesoscopic limit.
