We characterise the class of distributions of random stochastic matrices $X$ with the property that the products $X(n)X(n-1) ... X(1)$ of i.i.d. copies $X(k)$ of $X$ converge a.s. as $n \rightarrow \infty$ and the limit is Dirichlet…
Recently, a generalized Bernoulli process (GBP) was developed as a stationary binary sequence that can have long-range dependence. In this paper, we find the scaling limit of a random walk that follows GBP. The result is a new class of…
Anomalous diffusion processes, in particular superdiffusive ones, are known to be efficient strategies for searching and navigation by animals and also in human mobility. One way to create such regimes are L\'evy flights, where the walkers…
We study analytically the order statistics of a time series generated by the successive positions of a symmetric random walk of n steps with step lengths of finite variance \sigma^2. We show that the statistics of the gap d_{k,n}=M_{k,n}…
Random walks of n steps taken into independent uniformly random directions in a d-dimensional Euclidean space (d larger than 1), are named Dirichlet when their step lengths are distributed according to a Dirichlet law. The latter continuous…
We survey some geometrical properties of trajectories of $d$-dimensional random walks via the application of functional limit theorems. We focus on the functional law of large numbers and functional central limit theorem (Donsker's…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of a $d$-dimensional self-interacting random walk $X_n$ ($n = 1,2,...$) which is repelled or attracted by the centre of mass $G_n = n^{-1} \sum_{i=1}^n X_i$ of its previous trajectory. The walk's trajectory…
Let $(Y_i,Z_i)_{i\geq 1}$ be a sequence of independent, identically distributed (i.i.d.) random vectors taking values in $\RRR^k\times\RRR^d$, for some integers $k$ and $d$. Given $z\in \RRR^d$, we provide a nonstandard functional limit law…
Let $\xi_1$, $\xi_2,\ldots$ be i.i.d. random variables of zero mean and finite variance and $\eta_1$, $\eta_2,\ldots$ positive i.i.d. random variables whose distribution belongs to the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable…
We establish scaling limits for the random walk whose state space is the range of a simple random walk on the four-dimensional integer lattice. These concern the asymptotic behaviour of the graph distance from the origin and the spatial…
Let (Z_n)_{n\in\N_0} be a d-dimensional random walk in random scenery, i.e., Z_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}Y_{S_k} with (S_k)_{k\in\N_0} a random walk in Z^d and (Y_z)_{z\in Z^d} an i.i.d. scenery, independent of the walk. We assume that the random…
For Sina\"i's walk (X_k) we show that the empirical measure of the environment seen from the particle (\bar\w_k) converges in law to some random measure S. This limit measure is explicitly given in terms of the infinite valley, which…
We consider random walks perturbed at zero which behave like (possibly different) random walks with i.i.d. increments on each half lines and restarts at $0$ whenever they cross that point. We show that the perturbed random walk, after being…
Let $X_1$, $X_2$, $...$ be a sequence of independently and identically distributed random variables with $\mathsf{E}X_1=0$, and let $S_0=0$ and $S_t=S_{t-1}+X_t$, $t=1,2,...$, be a random walk. Denote $\tau={cases}\inf\{t>1: S_t\leq0\},…
Anomalous diffusion occurs in many physical and biological phenomena, when the growth of the mean squared displacement (MSD) with time has an exponent different from one. We show that recurrent neural networks (RNN) can efficiently…
Let $(g_n)_{n\geq 1}$ be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random elements with law $\mu$ on the general linear group $\textrm{GL}(V)$, where $V=\mathbb R^d$. Consider the random walk $G_n : = g_n \ldots g_1$, $n \geq…
We show that the occurrence of chaotic diffusion in a typical class of time-delayed systems with linear instantaneous and nonlinear delayed term can be well described by an anti-persistent random walk. We numerically investigate the…
We consider a discrete-time branching random walk in the boundary case, where the associated random walk is in the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable law with $1<\alpha<2$. We prove that the derivative martingale $D_n$ converges to…
Let $G$ be a group with a non-elementary action on a proper CAT(0) space $X$, and let $\mu$ be a measure on $G$ such that the random walk $(Z_n)_n$ generated by $\mu$ has finite second moment on $X$. Let $o$ be a basepoint in $X$, and…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of additive functionals of random walks in random scenery. We establish bounds for the moments of the local time of the Kesten and Spitzer process.These bounds combined with a previous moment convergence…
