This paper explores a conditional Gibbs theorem for a random walkinduced by i.i.d. (X_{1},..,X_{n}) conditioned on an extreme deviation of its sum (S_{1}^{n}=na_{n}) or (S_{1}^{n}>na_{n}) where a_{n}\rightarrow\infty. It is proved that when…

We prove a strong law of large numbers and an annealed invariance principle for a random walk in a one-dimensional dynamic random environment evolving as the simple exclusion process with jump parameter $\gamma$. First, we establish that if…

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 study the asymptotic behaviour of a version of the one-dimensional Mott random walk in a regime that exhibits severe blocking. We establish that, for any fixed time, the appropriately-rescaled Mott random walk is situated between two…

We study once-reinforced random walk (ORRW) on $\mathbb Z$. For this model, we derive limit results on all moments of its range using Tauberian theory.

This note contains old instead of new results about random walks on groups, which may serve as a small supplement to the author's monograph ``Random Walks on Infinite Graphs and Groups'' (Cambridge Univ. Press 2000/2009). First, we exhibit…

We formulate and prove a general weak limit theorem for quantum random walks in one and more dimensions. With $X_n$ denoting position at time $n$, we show that $X_n/n$ converges weakly as $n \to \infty$ to a certain distribution which is…

In this paper, we systematically summarize and enhance the understanding of weak convergence and functional limits of record numbers in discrete-time random walks under Spitzer's condition, and extend these findings to $\sigma$--record…

In this paper, we discuss asymptotic behavior of the capacity of the range of symmetric simple random walks on finitely generated groups. We show the corresponding strong law of large numbers and central limit theorem.

In this paper, we study a class of unbalanced step-reinforced random walks that unifies the elephant random walk, the positively step-reinforced random walk, and the negatively step-reinforced random walk. By establishing a connection with…

We study a random walk in random environment on the non-negative integers. The random environment is not homogeneous in law, but is a mixture of two kinds of site, one in asymptotically vanishing proportion. The two kinds of site are (i)…

In many complex systems, for the activity f(i) of the constituents or nodes i, a power-law relationship was discovered between the standard deviation sigma(i) and the average strength of the activity: sigma(i) ~ <f(i)>^alpha; universal…
