Reinforced random walks are random walks on graphs whose transition probabilities along edges from a vertex are proportional to the weights of those edges, but where the weight of an edge evolves in a way that depends on the past traversals…
The Maximal Entropy Random Walk (MERW) is a natural process on a finite graph, introduced a few years ago with motivations from theoretical physics. The construction of this process relies on Perron-Frobenius theory for adjacency matrices.…
In this paper, we make a few random explorations that relate directly to the items mentioned in the title. We define transient chains and recurrent chains with "killing", the Green's function, the Laplacian operator, and harmonic functions.…
Many mathematical models of statistical physics in two dimensions are either known or conjectured to exhibit conformal invariance. Over the years, physicists proposed predictions of various exponents describing the behavior of these models.…

Appreciation of Stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE$_\kappa$), as a powerful tool to check for conformal invariant properties of geometrical features of critical systems has been rising. In this paper we use this method to check conformal…
The Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) is a powerful tool to describe fractal interfaces in 2D critical statistical systems. Yet the application of SLE is well established for statistical systems described by quantum field theories satisfying…

We disclose the origin of anisotropic percolation perimeters in terms of the Stochastic Loewner Evolution (SLE) process. Precisely, our results from extensive numerical simulations indicate that the perimeters of multi-layered and directed…
We consider the limit behavior of an excited random walk (ERW), i.e., a random walk whose transition probabilities depend on the number of times the walk has visited to the current state. We prove that an ERW being naturally scaled…
Subordinating a random walk to a renewal process yields a continuous time random walk (CTRW) model for diffusion, including the possibility of anomalous diffusion. Transition densities of scaling limits of power law CTRWs have been shown to…
SLE is a random growth process based on Loewner's equation with driving parameter a one-dimensional Brownian motion running with speed $\kappa$. This process is intimately connected with scaling limits of percolation clusters and with the…
We review some recently completed research that establishes the scaling limit of Fomin's identity for loop-erased random walk on Z^2 in terms of the chordal Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) with parameter 2. In the case of two paths, we…
We numerically test the correspondence between the scaling limit of self-avoiding walks (SAW) in the plane and Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) with k=8/3. We introduce a discrete-time process approximating SLE in the exterior of the unit…
We consider a variation of the Generalized Excited Random Walk (GERW) in dimension $d\ge 2$ where the lower bound on the drift for excited jumps is time-dependent and decays to zero. We show that if the lower bound decays slower that…
The natural paramterization or length for the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE{\kappa}) is the candidate for the scaling limit of the length of discrete curves for \kappa < 8. We improve the proof of the existence of the parametrization and…

The Levy Walk is the process with continuous sample paths which arises from consecutive linear motions of i.i.d. lengths with i.i.d. directions. Assuming speed 1 and motions in the domain of beta-stable attraction, we prove functional limit…
Numerical studies of fractal curves in the plane often focus on subtle geometrical properties such as their left passage probability. Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) is a mathematical framework which makes explicit predictions for such…
