We prove a law of large numbers for certain random walks on certain attractive dynamic random environments when initialised from all sites equal to the same state. This result applies to random walks on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $d\geq1$. We…

These notes from a graduate class at the Unuversidad Autonoma de Madrid analyze a search behavior known as Area Resticted Search (ARS), widespread in the animal kingdom, and optimal when the resources that one is after are "patchy". In the…

We define the reflection of a random walk at a general barrier and derive, in case the increments are light tailed and have negative mean, a necessary and sufficient criterion for the global maximum of the reflected process to be finite…

In this minireview we present the main results regarding the transport properties of stochastic movement with relocations to known positions. To do so, we formulate the problem in a general manner to see several cases extensively studied…

We study the long-time behavior of the probability density associated with the decoupled continuous-time random walk which is characterized by a superheavy-tailed distribution of waiting times. It is shown that if the random walk is…

We study continuous-time (variable speed) random walks in random environments on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\ge2$, where, at time $t$, the walk at $x$ jumps across edge $(x,y)$ at time-dependent rate $a_t(x,y)$. The rates, which we assume stationary…

First, we prove a \emph{local almost sure central limit theorem} for lattice random walks in the plane. The corresponding version for random walks in the line was considered by the author in \cite{5}. This gives us a quantitative version of…

A random walk on a regular tree (or any non-amenable graph) has positive speed. We ask whether such a walk can be slowed down by applying carefully chosen time-dependent permutations of the vertices. We prove that on trees the random walk…

We consider a broad class of Continuous Time Random Walks with large fluctuations effects in space and time distributions: a random walk with trapping, describing subdiffusion in disordered and glassy materials, and a L\'evy walk process,…

We consider the randomly biased random walk on trees in the slow movement regime as in [HS16], whose potential is given by a branching random walk in the boundary case. We study the heavy range up to the $n$-th return to the root, i.e., the…

We consider excited random walks on the integers with a bounded number of i.i.d. cookies per site which may induce drifts both to the left and to the right. We extend the criteria for recurrence and transience by M. Zerner and for…

We study massive (reccurent) sets with respect to a certain random walk $S_\alpha $ defined on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z} ^d$, $d=1,2$. Our random walk $S_\alpha $ is obtained from the simple random walk $S$ on $\mathbb{Z} ^d$ by the…

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 consider a ballistic random walk in an i.i.d. random environment that does not allow retreating in a certain fixed direction. We prove an invariance principle (functional central limit theorem) under almost every fixed environment. The…

In this paper, we systematically summarize and enhance the understanding of weak convergence and functional limits of record numbers in discrete-time random walks under Spitzer's condition, and extend these findings to $\sigma$--record…

We consider biased random walks in positive random conductances on the d-dimensional lattice in the zero-speed regime and study their scaling limits. We obtain a functional Law of Large Numbers for the position of the walker, properly…

We study a random walk model in which the jumping probability to a site is dependent on the number of previous visits to the site, as a model of the mobility with memory. To this end we introduce two parameters called the memory parameter…

In this paper, we study the dynamics of a random walker diffusing on a disordered one-dimensional lattice with random trappings. The distribution of escape probabilities is computed exactly for any strength of the disorder. These…

We obtain Central Limit Theorems in Functional form for a class of time-inhomogeneous interacting random walks on the simplex of probability measures over a finite set. Due to a reinforcement mechanism, the increments of the walks are…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of a random walk whose evolution is dependent on the state of an itself dynamically evolving environment. In particular, we extend our previous results in [Bethuelsen and V\"ollering, 2016] and prove a…
