We study the rate of convergence to equilibrium of the self-repellent random walk and its local time process on the discrete circle $\mathbb{Z}_n$. While the self-repellent random walk alone is non-Markovian since the jump rates depend on…

Rydberg atom arrays promise high-fidelity quantum simulations of critical phenomena with flexible geometries. Yet experimental realizations inevitably suffer from disorder due to random displacements of atoms, leading to departures from the…

We study downward deviations of the maximum local time of the discrete-time simple random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\ge 3$. In our previous paper \cite{li2026ldmaxlocal}, the corresponding upper bound was established, while the matching…

A proof is provided of a strong law of large numbers for a one-dimensional random walk in a dynamic random environment given by a supercritical contact process in equilibrium. The proof is based on a coupling argument that traces the…

Taking $P^0$ to be the measure induced by simple, symmetric nearest neighbor continuous time random walk on ${\bf{Z^d}}$ starting at $0$ with jump rate $2d$ define, for $\beta\ge 0,\,t>0,$ the Gibbs probability measure $P_{\beta,t}$ by…

We consider the random walk on a simple point process on $\Bbb{R}^d$, $d\geq2$, whose jump rates decay exponentially in the $\alpha$-power of jump length. The case $\alpha =1$ corresponds to the phonon-induced variable-range hopping in…

Let $X_1, X_2, \ldots$ be i.i.d. random variables with values in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ satisfying $\mathbb{P} \left(X_1=x\right) = \mathbb{P} \left(X_1=-x\right) = \Theta \left(\|x\|^{-s}\right)$ for some $s>d$. We show that the random walk…

We investigate the long-term behavior of a random walker evolving on top of the simple symmetric exclusion process (SSEP) at equilibrium, in dimension one. At each jump, the random walker is subject to a drift that depends on whether it is…
