Abstract

We consider a continuous-time simple symmetric random walk on the integer lattice Zd\mathbb{Z}^d in dimension d3d \geq 3, subject to a random potential given by a field of two-sided Wiener processes. In the high-temperature regime, we prove the existence of the L2L^2- and almost sure limits of the partition function as time t±t \to \pm \infty, and show that these limiting partition functions are positive almost surely. Our main result is a factorization formula for the point-to-point partition function, which is shown to be valid up to any sub-ballistic scale.
