Let $(A_v)_{v\in \mathcal{T}}$ be the balanced Gaussian Branching Random Walk on a $d$-ary tree $\mathcal{T}$ and let $M^A$ be the multiplicative chaos with parameter $\gamma \in (0, \sqrt{2\log d})$ constructed from $A$. In this work we…

Given a probability measure on a finitely generated group, the local limit problem consists in finding asymptotics of $p_n(e,e)$, the probability that the random walk at time $n$ is at the origin. We give the classification of all possible…

We consider a null recurrent random walk $\mathbb{X}$ on a super-critical Galton Watson marked tree $\mathbb{T}$ in the (sub-)diffusive regime. We are interested in the asymptotic behaviour of the local time of its root at $n$, which is the…

Central limit theorems for random walks in quenched random environments have attracted plenty of attention in the past years. More recently still, finer local limit theorems -- yielding a Gaussian density multiplied by a highly oscillatory…

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…

Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be independent identically distributed random variables with $\mathbb E X_k=0$, $\mathrm{Var} X_k=1$. Suppose that $\varphi(t):=\log \mathbb E e^{t X_k}<\infty$ for all $t>-\sigma_0$ and some $\sigma_0>0$. Let…

In this article, we study a branching random walk in an environment which depends on the time. This time-inhomogeneous environment consists of a sequence of macroscopic time intervals, in each of which the law of reproduction remains…

Completing a strategy of Gou\"ezel and Lalley, we prove a local limit theorem for the random walk generated by any symmetric finitely supported probability measure on a non-elementary Gromov-hyperbolic group: denoting by $R$ the inverse of…

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 consider random variables observed at arrival times of a renewal process, which possibly depends on those observations and has regularly varying steps with infinite mean. Due to the dependence and heavy tailed steps, the limiting…
