We study the trapping phenomenon of random walks in random environments of i.i.d. random conductances on the bonds of the grid $\mathbb{Z}^d$, the so-called random conductance model. Our main results concern the important model with…
We study models of discrete-time, symmetric, $\Z^{d}$-valued random walks in random environments, driven by a field of i.i.d. random nearest-neighbor conductances $\omega_{xy}\in[0,1]$, with polynomial tail near 0 with exponent $\gamma>0$.…
We consider random walks on $\Z^d$ among nearest-neighbor random conductances which are i.i.d., positive, bounded uniformly from above but whose support extends all the way to zero. Our focus is on the detailed properties of the paths of…
In this paper we consider a time-continuous random walk in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in a dynamical random environment with symmetric jump rates to nearest neighbours. We assume that these random conductances are stationary and ergodic and, moreover,…
We consider random walks in a balanced i.i.d. random environment in $Z^d$ for $d\ge2$ and the corresponding discrete non-divergence form difference operators. We first obtain an exponential integrability of the heat kernel bounds. We then…
We extend the use of random evolving sets to time-varying conductance models and utilize it to provide tight heat kernel upper bounds. It yields the transience of any uniformly lazy random walk, on Z^d, d>=3, equipped with uniformly bounded…
We consider the nearest-neighbor simple random walk on $\Z^d$, $d\ge2$, driven by a field of bounded random conductances $\omega_{xy}\in[0,1]$. The conductance law is i.i.d. subject to the condition that the probability of $\omega_{xy}>0$…
We prove that the heat kernel on the infinite Bernoulli percolation cluster in Z^d almost surely decays faster than t^{-d/2}. We also derive estimates on the mixing time for the random walk confined to a finite box. Our approach is based on…
We study a continuous time random walk $X$ in an environment of i.i.d. random conductances $\mu_e\in[1,\infty)$. We obtain heat kernel bounds and prove a quenched invariance principle for $X$. This holds even when…
We study the diagonal heat-kernel decay for the four-dimensional nearest-neighbor random walk (on $\Z^4$) among i.i.d. random conductances that are positive, bounded from above but can have arbitrarily heavy tails at zero. It has been known…
We establish heat kernel upper bounds for a continuous-time random walk under unbounded conductances satisfying an integrability assumption, where we correct and extend recent results by the authors to a general class of speed measures. The…
Recent progress on the understanding of the Random Conductance Model is reviewed. A particular emphasis is on homogenization results such as functional central limit theorems, local limit theorems and heat kernel estimates for almost every…
We consider random walks among random conductances on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ and establish precise asymptotics for the associated potential kernel and the Green's function of the walk killed upon exiting balls. The result is proven for random walks…
We consider time-dependent random walks among time-dependent conductances. For discrete time random walks, we show that, unlike the time-independent case, two-sided Gaussian heat kernel estimates are not stable under perturbations. This is…
We study the random conductance model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with ergodic, unbounded conductances. We prove a Gaussian lower bound on the heat kernel given a polynomial moment condition and some additional assumptions on the correlations of the…
In this paper, we derive upper bounds for the heat kernel of the simple random walk on the infinite cluster of a supercritical long range percolation process. For any $d \geq 1$ and for any exponent $s \in (d, (d+2) \wedge 2d)$ giving the…
It is well-known that stochastic processes on fractal spaces or in certain random media exhibit anomalous heat kernel behaviour. One manifestation of such irregular behaviour is the presence of fluctuations in the short- or long-time…
We study some spectral properties of random walks on infinite countable amenable groups with an emphasis on locally finite groups, e.g. the infinite symmetric group. On locally finite groups, the random walks under consideration are driven…

We study local regularity properties of linear, non-uniformly parabolic finite-difference operators in divergence form related to the random conductance model on $\mathbb Z^d$. In particular, we provide an oscillation decay assuming only…
