Abstract

We study a class of non-reversible, continuous-time random walks in random environments on Zd\mathbb{Z}^d that admit a cycle representation with finite cycle length. The law of the transition rates, taking values in [0,)[0, \infty), is assumed to be stationary and ergodic with respect to space shifts. Moreover, the transition rate from xx to yy, denoted by cω(x,y)c^\omega(x,y), is a superposition of non-negative random weights on oriented cycles that contain the edge (x,y)(x,y). We prove a quenched invariance principle under moment conditions that are comparable to the well-known p-q moment condition of Andres, Deuschel, and Slowik [2] for the random conductance model. A key ingredient in proving the sublinearity is an energy estimate for the non-symmetric generator. Our result extends that of Deuschel and K\"osters [12] beyond strong ellipticity and bounded cycle lengths.
