The vertex-reinforced jump process (VRJP), introduced by Davis and Volkov, is a continuous-time process that tends to come-back to already visited vertices. It is closely linked to the edge-reinforced random walk (ERRW) introduced by…
We show transience of the edge-reinforced random walk (ERRW) for small reinforcement in dimension d greater than 2. This proves the existence of a phase transition between recurrent and transient behavior, thus solving an open problem…
We define a linearly reinforced process called the *-Edge-Reinforced Random Walk (*-ERRW ) which can be seen as a Yaglom reversible, hence non-reversible, extension of the Edge-Reinforced Random Walk (ERRW) introduced by Coppersmith and…
Reinforced random walks (RRWs), including vertex-reinforced random walks (VRRWs) and edge-reinforced random walks (ERRWs), model random walks where the transition probabilities evolve based on prior visitation history~\cite{mgr, fmk,…
The edge-reinforced random walk (ERRW) is a random process on the vertices of a graph that is more likely to cross the edges it has visited in the past. Depending on the strength of the reinforcement, the ERRW of a single particle can…
We introduce a new exponential family of probability distributions, which can be viewed as a multivariate generalization of the Inverse Gaussian distribution. Considered as the potential of a random Schr\"odinger operator, this exponential…
This paper concerns the Vertex reinforced jump process (VRJP), the Edge reinforced random walk (ERRW) and their link with a random Schr\"odinger operator. On infinite graphs, we define a 1-dependent random potential $\beta$ extending that…
Vertex-reinforced random walk (VRRW), defined by Pemantle in 1988, is a random process that takes values in the vertex set of a graph G, which is more likely to visit vertices it has visited before. Pemantle and Volkov considered the case…
Reinforced random walks are random walks on graphs whose transition probabilities along edges from a vertex are proportional to the weights of those edges, but where the weight of an edge evolves in a way that depends on the past traversals…
Vertex-Reinforced Random Walk (VRRW), defined by Pemantle (1988a), is a random process in a continuously changing environment which is more likely to visit states it has visited before. We consider VRRW on arbitrary graphs and show that on…
In this paper we introduce a new simple but powerful general technique for the study of edge- and vertex-reinforced processes with super-linear reinforcement, based on the use of order statistics for the number of edge, respectively of…
We investigate the non-reversible generalization of the Vertex-Reinforced Jump Process (VRJP), called the *-Vertex-Reinforced Jump Process (*-VRJP) and introduced by Bacallado, Sabot and Tarr\`es (2020). It can be seen as the…
The vertex-reinforced jump process (VRJP) is a form of self-interacting random walk in which the walker is biased towards returning to previously visited vertices with the bias depending linearly on the local time at these vertices. We…
We prove that the linearly edge reinforced random walk (LRRW) on any graph with bounded degrees is recurrent for sufficiently small initial weights. In contrast, we show that for non-amenable graphs the LRRW is transient for sufficiently…
We generalize a result from Volkov [Ann. Probab. 29 (2001) 66--91] and prove that, on a large class of locally finite connected graphs of bounded degree $(G,\sim)$ and symmetric reinforcement matrices $a=(a_{i,j})_{i,j\in G}$, the…
In this paper, we study the fundamental problem of random walk for network embedding. We propose to use non-Markovian random walk, variants of vertex-reinforced random walk (VRRW), to fully use the history of a random walk path. To solve…
We prove that the restriction of the vertex-reinforced jump process to a subset of the vertex set is a mixture of vertex-reinforced jump processes. A similar statement holds for the non-linear hyperbolic supersymmetric sigma model. This is…
We introduce a continuous space limit of the Vertex Reinforced Jump Process (VRJP) in dimension one, which we call Linearly Reinforced Motion (LRM) on $\R$. It is constructed out of a convergent Bass-Burdzy flow. The proof goes through the…
We introduce the continuous-time vertex-reinforced random walk (cVRRW) as a continuous-time version of the vertex-reinforced random walk (VRRW), which might open a new perspective on the study of the VRRW. It has been proved by Limic and…
We study an extension of the generalized excited random walk (GERW) on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ introduced in [Ann. Probab. 40 (5), 2012, [7]] by Menshikov, Popov, Ram\'irez and Vachkovskaia. Our extension consists in studying a version of the GERW…
