We consider integer-valued random walks with independent but not identically distributed increments, and extend to this context several classical estimates, including a local limit theorem, precise small-ball estimates (both conditional on…

We characterize the set of positive harmonic functions with Dirichlet boundary conditions in unbounded domains which are union of several different chambers. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the solutions in connection with the changes…

We studied simple random-walk models with asymmetric time delays. Stochastic simulations were performed for hyperbolic-tangent fitness functions and to obtain analytical results we approximated them by step functions. A novel behavior has…

We consider a walker that at each step keeps the same direction with a probabilitythat depends on the time already spent in the direction the walker is currently moving. In this paper, we study some asymptotic properties of this persistent…

We study the asymptotic distribution of random walks on $\mathbb Z^d$ ($d\ge1$) in deterministic reversible environments defined by an assignment of a positive conductance to each edge of $\mathbb Z^d$. We identify a deterministic set of…

This paper deals with random walks on isometry groups of Gromov hyperbolic spaces, and more precisely with the dimension of the harmonic measure $\nu$ associated with such a random walk. We first establish a link of the form $\dim \nu \leq…

Random walks conditioned to stay positive are a prominent topic in fluctuation theory. One way to construct them is as a random walk conditioned to stay positive up to time $n$, and let $n$ tend to infinity. A second method is conditioning…
