We derive the sharp return-probability asymptotic for the switch--walk--switch lamplighter walk with lamp group $\mathbb Z_2$ over the infinite $d$-regular tree: \[ p_{2n}(e,e) = \rho_d^{2n} \exp\left[ -\left(\pi^2(\log(d-1))^2+o(1)\right)…

Sharp estimates for the length of loop erased random walk between two vertices on the [n]^d -torus, d > 4, are established. The mean length is order n^{d/2} . In dimension 4 we have only an upper bound.

In this paper we study a random walk in a one-dimensional dynamic random environment consisting of a collection of independent particles performing simple symmetric random walks in a Poisson equilibrium with density $\rho \in (0,\infty)$.…

We consider a random walk on the Manhattan lattice. The walker must follow the orientations of the bonds in this lattice, and the walker is not allowed to visit a site more than once. When both possible steps are allowed, the walker chooses…

We investigate reflected random walks in the quarter plane, with particular emphasis on the time spent along the reflection boundary axes. Assuming the drift of the random walk lies within the cone, the local time converges -- without the…

We review the existence of the infinite length self-avoiding walk in the half plane and its relationship to bridges. We prove that this probability measure is also given by the limit as $\beta \rightarrow \beta_c-$ of the probability…

We consider a Random Walk in Random Environment (RWRE) moving in an i.i.d.\ random field of obstacles. When the particle hits an obstacle, it disappears with a positive probability. We obtain quenched and annealed bounds on the tails of the…

We present an analytical and numerical study of the paths of self avoiding walks (SAWs) on random networks. Since these walks do not retrace their paths, they effectively delete the nodes they visit, together with their links, thus pruning…

We prove the limit theorem for paths of random walks with $n$ steps in $\mathbb{R}^d$ as $n$ and $d$ both go to infinity. For this, the paths are viewed as finite metric spaces equipped with the $\ell_p$-metric for $p\in[1,\infty)$. Under…
