We present analytical results for the distribution of first return (FR) times of random walks (RWs) on random regular graphs (RRGs) consisting of $N$ nodes of degree $c \ge 3$. Starting from a random initial node $i$ at time $t=0$, at each…
Network growth models that embody principles such as preferential attachment and local attachment rules have received much attention over the last decade. Among various approaches, random walks have been leveraged to capture such…
Random Walks in Cooling Random Environments (RWCRE) is a model of random walks in dynamic random environments where the entire environment is resampled along a fixed sequence of times, called the "cooling sequence," and is kept fixed in…
In this work we extend the results of the reunion probability of $N$ one-dimensional random walkers to include mixed boundary conditions between their trajectories. The level of the mixture is controlled by a parameter $c$, which can be…
In this paper, we study random walks evolving with a directional bias in a two-dimensional random environment with correlations that vanish polynomially. Using renormalization methods first employed for one-dimensional dynamic environments…
Vertex-reinforced random walk (VRRW), defined by Pemantle in 1988, is a random process that takes values in the vertex set of a graph G, which is more likely to visit vertices it has visited before. Pemantle and Volkov considered the case…
The probability of a random walker to return to its starting point in dimensions one and two is unity, a theorem first proven by G. Polya. The recurrence probability -- the probability to be found at the origin at a time t, is a power law…
We consider a class of self-interacting random walks in deterministic or random environments, known as excited random walks or cookie walks, on the d-dimensional integer lattice. The main purpose of this paper is two-fold: to give a survey…
In this paper, we derive the distribution of a two-dimensional (complex) random walk in which the angle of each step is restricted to a subset of the circle. This setting appears in various domains, such as in over-the-air computation in…
We introduce a model for the slow relaxation of an energy landscape caused by its local interaction with a random walker whose motion is dictated by the landscape itself. By choosing relevant measures of time and potential this…
Random walks as well as diffusions in random media are considered. Methods are developed that allow one to establish large deviation results for both the `quenched' and the `averaged' case.
We investigate the role of a time and spin-dependent phase shift on the evolution of one-dimensional discrete-time quantum walks. By employing Floquet engineering, a time and spin-dependent phase shift ($\phi$) is imprinted onto the…
We study the behavior of the random walk in a continuum independent long-range percolation model, in which two given vertices $x$ and $y$ are connected with probability that asymptotically behaves like $|x-y|^{-\alpha}$ with $\alpha>d$,…
We consider a discrete random walk (RW) in n dimensions . The RW is adapted with a geometric absorption process: at any discrete time there is a constant probability that absorption occurs in the current state. To model the RW with…
The presence of temporal correlations in random movement trajectories is a widespread phenomenon across biological, chemical and physical systems. The ubiquity of persistent and anti-persistent motion in many natural and synthetic systems…
. In this paper we give a survey of some recent results for random walk in random scenery (RWRS). On $\mathbb {Z}^d$, $d\geq 1$, we are given a random walk with i.i.d. increments and a random scenery with i.i.d. components. The walk and the…
A parametric family of two-dimensional random walks $\mathbf{S}_t(a)$ $=\big(S_t^{(1)}(a),$ $S_t^{(2)}(a)\big)$ in the main quarter plane is studied. The components $S_t^{(1)}(a)$ and $S_t^{(2)}(a)$ are assumed to be correlated in the way…
We consider random walks in dynamic random environments, with an environment generated by the time-reversal of a Markov process from the oriented percolation universality class. If the influence of the random medium on the walk is small in…
This work deals with the stationary analysis of two-dimensional partially homogeneous nearest-neighbour random walks. Such type of random walks are characterized by the fact that the one-step transition probabilities are functions of the…
We report on the asymptotic behaviour of a new model of random walk, we term the bindweed model, evolving in a random environment on an infinite multiplexed tree. The term \textit{multiplexed} means that the model can be viewed as a nearest…
