Genealogy in critical generations of a diffusive random walk in random environment on trees

Probability 2024-10-29 v2

Abstract

We consider the range R(n)R^{(n)}, the tree made up of visited vertices by a diffusive null-recurrent randomly biased walk X\mathbb{X} on a Galton-Watson tree T\mathbb{T} up to the nn-th return time to its root and we consider the following genealogy problem: pick two vertices uniformly at random in a generation of order nn in the tree R(n)R^{(n)}. Where does the coalescence occur? it turns out that the coalescence happens either in the recent past or in the remote past.
