Speed Function for Biased Random Walks with Traps

Probability 2022-09-02 v1 Mathematical Physics math.MP

Abstract

We consider a biased nearest-neighbor random walk on Z\Z which at each step is trapped for some random time with random, site-dependent mean. We derive a simple formula for the speed function in terms of the model parameters.
