The rotor walk on a graph is a deterministic analogue of random walk. Each vertex is equipped with a rotor, which routes the walker to the neighbouring vertices in a fixed cyclic order on successive visits. We consider rotor walk on an…
We study a system of coalescing random walks on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ in which the walk is oriented in the $d$-th direction and follows certain specified rules. We first study the geometry of the paths and show that, almost…
Random walks in random scenery are processes defined by $Z_n:=\sum_{k=1}^n\xi_{X_1+...+X_k}$, where $(X_k,k\ge 1)$ and $(\xi_y,y\in\mathbb Z)$ are two independent sequences of i.i.d. random variables. We assume here that their distributions…
We study the complete graph equipped with a topology induced by independent and identically distributed edge weights. The focus of our analysis is on the weight W_n and the number of edges H_n of the minimal weight path between two distinct…
In this paper we study typical distances in the configuration model, when the degrees have asymptotically infinite variance. We assume that the empirical degree distribution follows a power law with exponent $\tau\in (2,3)$, up to value…
Given a simple graph $G$, its line graph, denoted by $L(G)$, is obtained by representing each edge of $G$ as a vertex, with two vertices in $L(G)$ adjacent whenever the corresponding edges in $G$ share a common endpoint. By applying the…
We study the asymptotic behavior of ``true" self-avoiding random walks on general infinite locally finite trees. In this model, the walk starts at the root and, at each step, from its current vertex chooses a neighboring edge to traverse…
Let $\{X_{v}:v\in\mathbb{Z}^d\}$ be i.i.d. random variables. Let $S(\pi)=\sum_{v\in\pi}X_v$ be the weight of a self-avoiding lattice path $\pi$. Let \[M_n=\max\{S(\pi):\pi\text{ has length }n\text{ and starts from the origin}\}.\] We are…
In this article, we consider the number of collisions of three independent simple random walks on a subgraph of the two-dimensional square lattice obtained by removing all horizontal edges with vertical coordinate not equal to 0 and then,…
An oriented hypergraph is a hypergraph where each vertex-edge incidence is given a label of $+1$ or $-1$. The adjacency and Laplacian eigenvalues of an oriented hypergraph are studied. Eigenvalue bounds for both the adjacency and Laplacian…
Every generic linear functional $f$ on a convex polytope $P$ induces an orientation on the graph of $P$. From the resulting directed graph one can define a notion of $f$-arborescence and $f$-monotone path on $P$, as well as a natural graph…
By introducing the notions of living and dead nodes a new model of random tree evolution with continuous time parameter has been constructed. It is assumed that two random variables, the lifetime and the offspring number of living nodes…
In this note we consider the $k$th level of the uniform random recursive tree after $n$ steps, and prove that the proportion of nodes with degree greater than $t\log n$ converges to $(1-t)^k$ almost surely, as $n\to\infty$, for every…
We extend the results of Zhang et al. to show that $\lambda$ is an eigenvalue of a $k$-uniform hypertree $(k \geq 3)$ if and only if it is a root of a particular matching polynomial for a connected induced subtree. We then use this to…
The object of study is a soft random geometric graph with vertices given by a Poisson point process on a line and edges between vertices present with probability that has a polynomial decay in the distance between them. Various aspects of…
We give a realization of the stable L\'evy forest of a given size conditioned by its mass from the path of the unconditioned forest. Then, we prove an invariance principle for this conditioned forest by considering $k$ independent…
A traffic model on an open one-dimensional lattice is considered. At any discrete time moment, with prescribed probability, a particle arrives to the leftmost cell of the lattice, and, with prescribed probability, the arriving particle…
This investigation is motivated by a result we proved recently for the random transposition random walk: the distance from the starting point of the walk has a phase transition from a linear regime to a sublinear regime at time $n/2$. Here,…
For any integers $k\geq 2$, $q\geq 1$ and any finite set $\mathcal{A}=\{{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}_1,\cdots,{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}_q\}$, where ${ \boldsymbol{\alpha}_t}=(\alpha_{t,1},\cdots,\alpha_{t,k})~(1\leq t\leq q)$ with…
The properties of randomly evolving special trees having defined and analyzed already in two earlier papers (arXiv:cond-mat/0205650 and arXiv:cond-mat/0211092) have been investigated in the case when the continuous time parameter converges…
