We study an annealed model of Uniform Infinite Planar Quadrangulation (UIPQ) with an infinite two-sided self-avoiding walk (SAW), which can also be described as the result of glueing together two independent uniform infinite…

This paper studies particle propagation in a one-dimensional inhomogeneous medium where the laws of motion are generated by chaotic and deterministic local maps. Assuming that the particle's initial location is random and uniformly…

Self-avoiding walks self-interacting via nearest neighbours (ISAW) and self-avoiding trails interacting via multiply-visited sites (ISAT) are two models of the polymer collapse transition of a polymer in dilute solution. On the square…

We introduce branching annihilating attracting walk (BAAW) in one dimension. The attracting walk is implemented by a biased hopping in such a way that a particle prefers hopping to a nearest neighbor located on the side where the nearest…

We reduce the problem of counting self-avoiding walks in the square lattice to a problem of counting the number of integral points in multidimensional domains. We obtain an asymptotic estimate of the number of self-avoiding walks of length…

We consider the open symmetric exclusion (SEP) and inclusion (SIP) processes on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$, with both fast and slow boundary. For the random walks on $\Omega$ dual to SEP/SIP we establish: a functional-CLT-type…

Self-interacting random walks (SIRWs) show long-range memory effects that result from the interaction of the random walker at time $t$ with the territory already visited at earlier times $t'<t$. This class of non-Markovian random walks has…

We study an extended dynamical system on the non-negative real line with piecewise linear non-uniformly expanding local dynamics. With a uniformly distributed initial state, the distribution of successive states coincides with that of a…

Central limit theorems for random walks in quenched random environments have attracted plenty of attention in the past years. More recently still, finer local limit theorems -- yielding a Gaussian density multiplied by a highly oscillatory…

We study a class of $d$-dimensional random walks, including the two-dimensional simple random walk, reweighted by a self-repelling Gibbsian pair potential. We prove lower bounds on the diffusion constant for short-range interactions, and…

Based on a martingale theory approach, we present a complete characterization of the asymptotic behaviour of a lazy reinforced random walk (LRRW) which shows three different regimes (diffusive, critical and superdiffusive). This allows us…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of a $d$-dimensional self-interacting random walk $X_n$ ($n = 1,2,...$) which is repelled or attracted by the centre of mass $G_n = n^{-1} \sum_{i=1}^n X_i$ of its previous trajectory. The walk's trajectory…

Random walk in random environment (RWRE) is a fundamental model of statistical mechanics, describing the movement of a particle in a highly disordered and inhomogeneous medium as a random walk with random jump probabilities. It has been…

Motivated by various recent experimental findings, we propose a dynamical model of intermittently self-propelled particles: active particles that recurrently switch between two modes of motion, namely an active run-state and a turn state,…
