We consider two dimensional random walks conditioned to stay in the positive quadrant. Assuming that the increments of the walk have finite second moments and that the drift vector is co-oriented with one of two axes, we construct positive…

Random walks in random scenery are processes defined by $Z_n:=\sum_{k=1}^n\xi_{X_1+...+X_k}$, where basically $(X_k,k\ge 1)$ and $(\xi_y,y\in\mathbb Z)$ are two independent sequences of i.i.d. random variables. We assume here that $X_1$ is…

The paper studies the Hausdorff dimension of harmonic measures on various boundaries of a relatively hyperbolic group which are associated with random walks driven by a probability measure with finite first moment. With respect to the Floyd…

The harmonic measure $\nu$ on the boundary of the group $Sol$ associated to a discrete random walk of law $\mu$ was described by Kaimanovich. We investigate when it is absolutely continuous or singular with respect to Lebesgue measure. By…

We write $R_n$ for the minimal position attained after time $n$ by a branching random walk in the boundary case. In this article, we prove that $R_n - \frac{1}{2} \log n$ converges in law toward a shifted Gumbel distribution.

We study some spectral properties of random walks on infinite countable amenable groups with an emphasis on locally finite groups, e.g. the infinite symmetric group. On locally finite groups, the random walks under consideration are driven…

We are interested in the Guivarc'h inequality for admissible random walks on finitely generated relatively hyperbolic groups, endowed with a word metric. We show that for random walks with finite super-exponential moment, if this inequality…

Consider a branching random walk, where the branching mechanism is governed by a Galton-Watson process, and the migration by a finite range symmetric irreducible random walk on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Let $Z_n(z)$ be the number…

We prove a zero-one law for the stationary measure for algebraic sets generalizing the results of Furstenberg [13] and Guivarc'h and Le Page [20]. As an application, we establish a local limit theorem for the coefficients of random walks on…

Random hyperspherical harmonics are Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the unit $d$-dimensional sphere ($d\ge 2$). We study the convergence in Total Variation distance for their nonlinear statistics in the high energy limit, i.e., for…

We establish the quenched local limit theorem for reversible random walk on $\Z^d$ (with $d\ge 2$) among stationary ergodic random conductances that permit jumps of arbitrary length. The proof is based on the weak parabolic Harnack…

We consider a discrete time random walk in one dimension. At each time step the walker jumps by a random distance, independent from step to step, drawn from an arbitrary symmetric density function. We show that the expected positive maximum…

We study a space-time Brownian motion with drift B(t)=(t_0+t,y_0+W(t)+t) killed at the moving boundary of the cone {(t,x):0<x<t}. This article determines the parabolic Martin boundary and all harmonic functions associated with this process.…

We prove upper bounds on the transition probabilities of random walks with i.i.d. random conductances with a polynomial lower tail near $0$. We consider both constant and variable speed models. Our estimates are sharp. As a consequence, we…

In this paper, we discuss asymptotic behavior of the capacity of the range of symmetric simple random walks on finitely generated groups. We show the corresponding strong law of large numbers and central limit theorem.

This paper presents several versions of the Ancona inequality for finitely supported, irreducible random walks on non-amenable groups. We first study a class of Morse subsets with narrow points and prove the Ancona inequality around these…

We prove a new inequality bounding the probability that the random walk on a group has small total displacement in terms of the spectral and isoperimetric profiles of the group. This inequality implies that if the random walk on the group…

We prove that random walks on Thompson's group $F$ driven by strictly non-degenerate finitely supported probability measures $\mu$ have a non-trivial Poisson boundary. The proof consists in an explicit construction of two different…

Let $G$ be a real Lie group, $\Lambda<G$ a lattice and $H<G$ a connected semisimple subgroup without compact factors and with finite center. We define the notion of $H$-expanding measures $\mu$ on $H$ and, applying recent work of…
