We consider a vertex reinforced random walk on the integer lattice with sub-linear reinforcement. Under some assumptions on the regular variation of the weight function, we characterize whether the walk gets stuck on a finite interval. When…

We consider homogeneous open quantum random walks on a lattice with finite dimensional local Hilbert space and we study in particular the position process of the quantum trajectories of the walk. We prove that the properly rescaled position…

We consider $d$ random walks $\big(S_n^{(j)}\big)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, $1\leq j \leq d$, in the same random environment $\omega$ in $\mathbb{Z}$, and a recurrent simple random walk $(Z_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ on $\mathbb{Z}$. We assume that,…

We consider the motion of a particle on a Galton Watson tree, when the probabilities of jumping from a vertex to any one of its neighbours is determined by a random process. Given the tree, positive weights are assigned to the edges in such…

In this paper we introduce the notion of Random Walk in Changing Environment - a random walk in which each step is performed in a different graph on the same set of vertices, or more generally, a weighted random walk on the same vertex and…

Given a random walk $(S_n)$ with typical step distributed according to some fixed law and a fixed parameter $p \in (0,1)$, the associated positively step-reinforced random walk is a discrete-time process which performs at each step, with…

We consider the Lattice Gaussian free field in $d+1$ dimensions, $d=3$ or larger, on a large box (linear size $N$) with boundary conditions zero. On this field two potentials are acting: one, that models the presence of a wall, penalizes…

We study simple random walk on the class of random planar maps which can be encoded by a two-dimensional random walk with i.i.d. increments or a two-dimensional Brownian motion via a "mating-of-trees" type bijection. This class includes the…

We study continuous time random walks on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ (with $d \geq 2$) among random conductances $\{ \omega(\{x,y\}) : x,y \in \mathbb{Z}^d\}$ that permit jumps of arbitrary length. The law of the random variables $\omega(\{x,y\})$,…

We study an exactly solvable random walk model with long-range memory on arbitrary networks. The walker performs unbiased random steps to nearest-neighbor nodes and intermittently resets to previously visited nodes in a preferential way,…
