Dans cet article, nous considérons des processus de renouvellement markovien à queues lourdes. Nous montrons que, convenablement renormalisés, ils convergent vers l’ensemble régénératif d’indice . Nous appliquons ces résultats à un modèle d’accrochage dans une bande. Dans ce modèle, une marche aléatoire , contrainte à rester au-dessus d’un mur, est récompensée ou pénalisée lorsqu’est atteinte la bande où est un réel strictement positif. La convergence que nous établissons permet de caractériser les limites d’échelle de ce modèle au point critique.
In this paper we consider heavy tailed Markov renewal processes and we prove that, suitably renormalised, they converge in law towards the -stable regenerative set. We then apply these results to the strip wetting model which is a random walk constrained above a wall and rewarded or penalized when it hits the strip where is a given positive number. The convergence result that we establish allows to characterize the scaling limit of this process at criticality.
