Abstract

We consider a random walk in Zd\mathbb Z^d which jumps from a site xx to a nearest neighboring site x+ex+e (where eV:={xZd:x1=1}e\in V:=\{x\in\mathbb Z^d: |x|_1=1\}) with probability p0(e)+ϵξ(x,e)p_0(e)+\epsilon\xi(x,e). Here ep0(e)=1\sum_e p_0(e)=1, p0(e)>0p_0(e)> 0, ϵ\epsilon is a small parameter while {{ξ(x,e):eV}:xZd}\{\{\xi (x,e):e\in V\}: x\in\mathbb Z^d\} are i.i.d. random variables with an absolute value bounded by 11. We review recent progress in the non-vanishing velocity case, giving an asymptotic expansion in ϵ\epsilon of the invariant measure of the environmental process, and bounds for the velocity.
