On the limiting velocity of random walks in mixing random environment

Probability 2012-09-11 v3

Abstract

We consider random walks in strong-mixing random Gibbsian environments in Zd,d2\mathbb{Z}^d, d\ge 2. Based on regeneration arguments, we will first provide an alternative proof of Rassoul-Agha's conditional law of large numbers (CLLN) for mixing environment Rassoul-Agha (2005). Then, using coupling techniques, we show that there is at most one nonzero limiting velocity in high dimensions (d5d\ge 5).
