This tutorial article showcases the many varieties and uses of quantum walks. Discrete time quantum walks are introduced as counterparts of classical random walks. The emphasis is on the connections and differences between the two types of…
Quantum random walks are constructed on operator spaces with the aid of matrix-space lifting, a type of ampliation intermediate between those provided by spatial and ultraweak tensor products. Using a form of Wiener-Ito decomposition, a…
A L\'evy random medium, in a given space, is a random point process where the distances between points, a.k.a. targets, are long-tailed. Random walks visiting the targets of a L\'evy random medium have been used to model many (physical,…
This volume contains the post-proceedings of the Workshop on Adaptable Cloud Architectures (WACA 2025), held on June 20, 2025, in Lille, France, co-located with DisCoTec 2025 - 20th International Federated Conference on Distributed…
Motivated by the random Lorentz gas, we study deterministic walks in random environment and show that (in simple, yet relevant, cases) they can be reduced to a class of random walks in random environment where the jump probability depends…
This short survey has been prepared in connection with the workshop on discrete metric spaces and their applications at Princeton, August, 2003, and tries to convey some of the ways that one might look at functions on metric spaces in…
We consider a model for random walks on random environments (RWRE) with random subset of Z^d as the vertices, and uniform transition probabilities on 2d points (two "coordinate nearest points" in each of the d coordinate directions). We…
The random walk with choice is a well known variation to the random walk that first selects a subset of $d$ neighbours nodes and then decides to move to the node which maximizes the value of a certain metric; this metric captures the number…

We introduce a class of multifractal processes, referred to as Multifractal Random Walks (MRWs). To our knowledge, it is the first multifractal processes with continuous dilation invariance properties and stationary increments. MRWs are…
Random walks process on networks plays a fundamental role in understanding the importance of nodes and the similarity of them, which has been widely applied in PageRank, information retrieval, and community detection, etc. Individual's…
Recently delivered lectures on Self-Referential Mathematics, [2], at the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, University of Pretoria, are briefly presented. Comments follow on the subject, as well as on Inconsistent…
In this paper, we introduce random walks with absorbing states on simplicial complexes. Given a simplicial complex of dimension $d$, a random walk with an absorbing state is defined which relates to the spectrum of the $k$-dimensional…
These are the lecture notes from a course given in July 2005 at the summer school in Les Houches. We describe some recent results concerning two-dimensional conformally invariant systems. In particular, we discuss conformally invariant…
These notes grew out of lectures given at the LMS-EPSRC Short Course on Asymptotic Methods in Infinite Group Theory, University of Oxford, 9-14 September 2007, organised by Dan Segal.
In this report, we introduce the elephant random walk on the triangular lattice over $R^2$ incorporating directions by extending the model developed in \cite{baur2016elephant}. We study the behavior of the walk by finding the appropriate…
