Non-intersecting, simple, symmetric \- random walks and the extended Hahn kernel
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 55 (2005) no. 6, pp. 2129-2145.

We show using non-intersecting paths, that a random rhombus tiling of a hexagon, or a boxed planar partition, is described by a determinantal point process given by an extended Hahn kernel.

Nous montrons en utilisant des chemins qui ne s'intersectent pas qu'un pavage rhombique d'un hexagone, ou une partition planaire en boîtes, est décrit par un point processus ponctuel déterminentiel, donné par un noyau de Hahn étendu.
