Abstract
We consider a nearest-neighbor, one dimensional random walk in a random i.i.d. environment, in the regime where the walk is transient but with zero speed, so that is of order for some . Under the quenched law (i.e., conditioned on the environment), we show that no limit laws are possible: There exist sequences and depending on the environment only, such that (a localized regime). On the other hand, there exist sequences and depending on the environment only, such that and for all and for (a spread out regime).
