In this paper we consider an irreducible random walk on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}$ that is in the domain of normal attraction of a strictly stable process with index $\alpha\in (1, 2)$ and obtain the asymptotic form of the…
This work deals with the stationary analysis of two-dimensional partially homogeneous nearest-neighbour random walks. Such type of random walks in the quarter plane are characterized by the fact that the one-step transition probabilities…
We study a general transition operator, generated by a random walk on a graph $X$; in particular we give necessary and sufficient condition on the matrix coefficient (1-step transition probablilities) to be a bounded operator from…
We give Harnack inequalities for the hitting distributions of a large family of symmetric random walks on $\Z^2$, and their projections onto the lattice torus $\Z^2_K$. This extends a framework for the simple random walk in Dembo, et al.…
Let $S_n =X_1+\cdots +X_n$ be an irreducible random walk (r.w.) on the one dimensional integer lattice with zero mean, infinite variance and i.i.d. increments $X_n$. We obtain an upper and lower bounds of the potential function, $a(x)$, of…
We prove an invariant Harnack's inequality for operators in non-divergence form structured on Heisenberg vector fields when the coefficient matrix is uniformly positive definite, continuous, and symplectic. The method consists in…
We prove concentration inequalities for functions of independent random variables {under} sub-gaussian and sub-exponential conditions. The utility of the inequalities is demonstrated by an extension of the now classical method of Rademacher…
This paper is concerned with nonlinear elliptic equations in nondivergence form where the operator has a first order drift term which is not Lipschitz continuous. Under this condition the equations are nonhomogeneous and nonnegative…
In this paper, we will study the behavior of the space of positive harmonic functions associated with the random walk on a discrete group under the change of probability measure by a randomized stopping time. We show that this space remains…
The vicious random walker problem on a one dimensional lattice is considered. Many walkers take simultaneous steps on the lattice and the configurations in which two of them arrive at the same site are prohibited. It is known that the…
To what extent is the underlying distribution of a finitely supported unbiased random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ determined by the sequence of times at which the walk returns to the origin? The main result of this paper is that, in various…
Let $Z$ be a subordinate Brownian motion in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 2$, via a subordinator with Laplace exponent $\phi$. We kill the process $Z$ upon exiting a bounded open set $D\subset {\mathbb R}^d$ to obtain the killed process $Z^D$, and…
A previous paper (hep-lat/9311011) proposed a new kind of random walk on a spherically-symmetric lattice in arbitrary noninteger dimension $D$. Such a lattice avoids the problems associated with a hypercubic lattice in noninteger dimension.…
When it comes to random walk on the integers $\mathbb{Z}$, the arguably first step of generalization beyond simple random walk is the class of one-sidedly continuous random walk, where the stepsize in only one direction is bounded by 1.…
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 consider a discrete-time random walk on the nodes of an unbounded hexagonal lattice. We determine the probability generating functions, the transition probabilities and the relevant moments. The convergence of the stochastic process to a…
A continuous-time random walk in the quarter plane with homogeneous transition rates is considered. Given a non-negative reward function on the state space, we are interested in the expected stationary performance. Since a direct derivation…
We consider a fractional Laplace equation and we give a self-contained elementary exposition of the representation formula for the Green function on the ball. In this exposition, only elementary calculus techniques will be used, in…
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…
The usual random walk on a group (homogeneous both in time and in space) is determined by a probability measure on the group. In a random walk with random transition probabilities this single measure is replaced with a stationary sequence…
