Abstract

We study a queueing transition of directed polymer in random media with an attractive defect at the center of the one dimensional substrate. The end to end distance of the polymer follows ~ with  = 3/2, for weak defect strength where is the polymer length. If  ≥  then the polymer is localized with finite in long limit. The transition is related to the queueing phenomena of the asymmetric simple exclusion process.
