It is well known that the distribution of simple random walks on $\bf{Z}$ conditioned on returning to the origin after $2n$ steps does not depend on $p= P(S_1 = 1)$, the probability of moving to the right. Moreover, conditioned on…

We consider a branching random walk on $\mathbb{R}$ with a stationary and ergodic environment $\xi=(\xi_n)$ indexed by time $n\in\mathbb{N}$. Let $Z_n$ be the counting measure of particles of generation $n$. For the case where the…

In this paper, we study second order fluctuations for the size of the range of a critical branching random walk (BRW) in $\mathbb Z^d$. We consider the BRW with geometric offspring indexed by the Kesten tree, and show that the size of its…

Recently, Takayasu and Tretyakov [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 68}, 3060 (1992)], studied branching annihilating random walks (BAW) with $n=1$-5 offspring. These models exhibit a continuous phase transition to an absorbing state. For odd $n$ the…

The behavior of the maximal displacement of a supercritical branching random walk has been a subject of intense studies for a long time. But only recently the case of time-inhomogeneous branching has gained focus. The contribution of this…
