We outline basic properties of a symmetric random walk in one dimension, in which the length of the nth step equals lambda^n, with lambda<1. As the number of steps N-->oo, the probability that the endpoint is at x, P_{lambda}(x;N),…

In this paper we explore the features of a graph generated by random walkers with nodes that have evolutionary attractiveness and Boltzmann-like transition probabilities that depend both on the euclidean distance between the nodes and on…

Let $X$ be a random walk on the torus of side length $N$ in dimension $d\geq 3$ with uniform starting point, and $t_{\text{cov}}$ be the expected value of its cover time, which is the first time that $X$ has visited every vertex of the…

The range, local times, and periodicity of symmetric, weakly asymmetric and asymmetric random walks at the time of exit from a strip with $N$ locations are considered. Several results on asymptotic distributions are obtained.

First, we prove a \emph{local almost sure central limit theorem} for lattice random walks in the plane. The corresponding version for random walks in the line was considered by the author in \cite{5}. This gives us a quantitative version of…

We introduce a one-dimensional random walk, which at each step performs a reinforced dynamics with probability $\theta$ and with probability $1 - \theta$, the random walk performs a step independent of the past. We analyse its asymptotic…

We consider a continuous-time random walk which is defined as an interpolation of a random walk on a point process on the real line. The distances between neighboring points of the point process are i.i.d. random variables in the normal…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the simple random walk on oriented versions of $\mathbb{Z}^2$. The considered lattices are not directed on the vertical axis but unidirectional on the horizontal one, with random orientations whose…

Fix integers $d \geq 2$ and $k\geq d-1$. Consider a random walk $X_0, X_1, \ldots$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in which, given $X_0, X_1, \ldots, X_n$ ($n \geq k$), the next step $X_{n+1}$ is uniformly distributed on the unit ball centred at $X_n$,…

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…

We prove that vertex-reinforced random walk on the integers with weight of order k to the power alpha, for alpha in [0, 1/2), is recurrent. This confirms a conjecture of Volkov for alpha<1/2. The conjecture for alpha in [1/2, 1) remains…

In this paper, we investigate the quest for a single target, that remains fixed in a lattice, by a set of independent walkers. The target exhibits a fluctuating behavior between trap and ordinary site of the lattice, whereas the walkers…

Random walks behave very differently for classical and quantum particles. Here we unveil a ubiquitous distinctive behavior of random walks of a photon in a one-dimensional lattice in the presence of a finite number of traps, at which the…

We develop a framework to determine the complete statistical behavior of a fundamental quantity in the theory of random walks, namely, the probability that $n_1$, $n_2$, $n_3$, . . . distinct sites are visited at times $t_1$, $t_2$, $t_3$,…
