We show that the transience or recurrence of a random walk in certain random environments on an arbitrary infinite locally finite tree is determined by the branching number of the tree, which is a measure of the average number of branches…

We study the survival probability and the growth rate for branching random walks in random environment (BRWRE). The particles perform simple symmetric random walks on the $d$-dimensional integer lattice, while at each time unit, they split…

We derive a self-duality relation for a one-dimensional model of branching and annihilating random walkers with an even number of offsprings. With the duality relation and by deriving exact results in some limiting cases involving fast…

In this paper we study the property of asymptotic direction for random walks in random i.i.d. environments (RWRE). We prove that if the set of directions where the walk is transient is non empty and open, the walk admits an asymptotic…

We consider a model for random walks on random environments (RWRE) with random subset of Z^d as the vertices, and uniform transition probabilities on 2d points (two "coordinate nearest points" in each of the d coordinate directions). We…

Branching random flights are key to describing the evolution of many physical and biological systems, ranging from neutron multiplication to gene mutations. When their paths evolve in bounded regions, we establish a relation between the…

We consider a Branching Random Walk on $\R$ whose step size decreases by a fixed factor, $0<b<1$, with each turn. This process generates a random probability measure on $\R$, that is, the limit of uniform distribution among the $2^n$…

We consider a branching random walk on the lattice, where the branching rates are given by an i.i.d. Pareto random potential. We describe the process, including a detailed shape theorem, in terms of a system of growing lilypads. As an…

Kesten et al.( 1975) proved the stable law for the transient RWRE (here we refer it as the $\kappa$-transient RWRE). After that, some similar interesting properties have also been revealed for its continuous counterpart, the diffusion…

Random walks in random environments (RWRE's) have been a source of surprising phenomena and challenging problems since they began to be studied in the 70's. Hitting times and, more recently, certain regeneration structures, have played a…
