The main result of this paper is a general central limit theorem for distributions defined by certain renewal type equations. We apply this to weakly self-avoiding random walks. We give good error estimates and Gaussian tail estimates which…
We demonstrate a quantum walk with time-dependent coin bias. With this technique we realize an experimental single-photon one-dimensional quantum walk with a linearly-ramped time-dependent coin flip operation and thereby demonstrate two…
We implement the discrete-time quantum walk model using the continuous-time evolution of the Hamiltonian that includes both the shift and the coin generators. Based on the Trotter-Suzuki first-order approximation, we consider an…
We construct admissible circulant Laplacian matrix functions as generators for strictly increasing random walks on the integer line. These Laplacian matrix functions refer to a certain class of Bernstein functions. The approach has…
Quantum random walks, - coined, lattice ones, - exhibit ballistic behavior with fascinating asymptotic patterns of the amplitudes. We show that averaging over the coins (using the Haar measure), these patterns blend into a spline. Also, we…
Ideas of Kn\"odel and B\"ohm-Hornik about walks in certain graphs, resembling the classical symmetric random walk on the integers, are combined. All the relevant generating functions (although occasionally quite involved) are made fully…
In this paper we consider a particular version of the random walk with restarts: random reset events which bring suddenly the system to the starting value. We analyze its relevant statistical properties like the transition probability and…
We study a $d$-dimensional random walk with exponentially distributed increments conditioned so that the components stay ordered (in the sense of Doob). We find explicitly a positive harmonic function $h$ for the killed process and then…
Using a mixture of linear algebra and statics, we derive what can be viewed as a slight generalization of the Coppersmith-Tetali-Winkler Identity $H(i,j)+H(j,k)+H(k,i)=H(j,i)+H(k,j)+H(i,k)$ for hitting times of a random walk.
We consider a one-dimensional, transient random walk in a random i.i.d. environment. The asymptotic behaviour of such random walk depends to a large extent on a crucial parameter $\kappa>0$ that determines the fluctuations of the process.…
Quantum walks are powerful tools for building quantum search algorithms or quantum sampling algorithms named the construction of quantum stationary state. However, the success probability of those algorithms are all far away from 1.…
We consider a Brownian particle moving on a ring. We study the probability distributions of the total number of turns and the net number of counter-clockwise turns the particle makes till time t. Using a method based on the renewal…
The Doob transform technique enables the study of a killed random walk (KRW) via a random walk (RW) with transition probabilities tilted by a discrete massive harmonic function. The main contribution of this paper is to transfer this…
We study an inverse problem on a finite connected graph G = (X, E), on whose vertices a conductivity {\gamma} is defined. Our data consists in a sequence of partial observations of a fractional random walk on G. The observations are partial…
The enormous successes have been made by quantum algorithms during the last decade. In this paper, we combine the quantum random walk (QRW) with the problem of data clustering, and develop two clustering algorithms based on the one…
In this paper, we show that a variant of the discrete Burgers equation can be obtained through the Cole--Hopf transformation to a generalized discrete diffusion equation corresponding to the correlated random walk, which is also known as a…
We prove simple general formulas for expectations of functions of a random walk and its running extremum. Under additional conditions, we derive analytical formulas using the inverse $Z$-transform, the Fourier/Laplace inversion and…
Based on studies on four specific networks, we conjecture a general relation between the walk dimensions $d_{w}$ of discrete-time random walks and quantum walks with the (self-inverse) Grover coin. In each case, we find that $d_{w}$ of the…
In [O'Connell and Yor (2002)] a path-transformation G was introduced with the property that, for X belonging to a certain class of random walks on the integer lattice, the transformed walk G(X) has the same law as that of the original walk…
Recently, quantized versions of random walks have been explored as effective elements for quantum algorithms. In the simplest case of one dimension, the theory has remained divided into the discrete-time quantum walk and the continuous-time…
