We propose a model of a one-dimensional random walk in dynamic random environment that interpolates between two classical settings: (I) the random environment is sampled at time zero only; (II) the random environment is resampled at every…

We formulate a compounded random walk that is physically well defined on both finite and infinite domains, and samples space-dependent forces throughout jumps. The governing evolution equation for the walk limits to a space-fractional…

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 provide a decomposition of the trace of the Brownian motion into a simple path and an independent Brownian soup of loops that intersect the simple path. More precisely, we prove that any subsequential scaling limit of the loop erased…

We prove that the edge-reinforced random walk on the ladder ${\mathbb{Z}\times\{1,2\}}$ with initial weights $a>3/4$ is recurrent. The proof uses a known representation of the edge-reinforced random walk on a finite piece of the ladder as a…

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 show that a random 3-manifold with positive first Betti number admits a tower of cyclic covers with exponential torsion growth.

We consider the simple random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ evolving in a random i.i.d. potential taking values in $[0,+\infty)$. The potential is not assumed integrable, and can be rescaled by a multiplicative factor $\lambda > 0$. Completing the…

We revisit the computation of the discrete version of Schramm's formula for the loop-erased random walk derived by Kenyon. The explicit formula in terms of the Green function relies on the use of a complex connection on a graph, for which a…

We show that the `erasing-larger-loops-first' (ELLF) method, which was first introduced for erasing loops from the simple random walk on the Sierpinski gasket, does work also for non-Markov random walks, in particular, self-repelling walks…
