As an image of the many-to-one map of loop-erasing operation $\LE$ of random walks, a self-avoiding walk (SAW) is obtained. The loop-erased random walk (LERW) model is the statistical ensemble of SAWs such that the weight of each SAW…

In this work, we consider loop-erased random walk (LERW) in three dimensions and give an asymptotic estimate on the one-point function for LERW and the non-intersection probability of LERW and simple random walk in three dimensions for…

In recent work we have shown that loop-erased random walk (LERW) connecting two boundary points of a domain converges to the chordal Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE(2)) in the sense of curves parametrized by Minkowski content. In this note…

We have analysed the recently extended series for the number of self-avoiding walks (SAWs) $C_L(1)$ that cross an $L \times L$ square between diagonally opposed corners. The number of such walks is known to grow as $\lambda_S^{L^2}.$ We…

We study a restricted class of self-avoiding walks (SAW) which start at the origin (0, 0), end at $(L, L)$, and are entirely contained in the square $[0, L] \times [0, L]$ on the square lattice ${\mathbb Z}^2$. The number of distinct walks…

If the three dimensional self-avoiding walk (SAW) is conformally invariant, then one can compute the hitting densities for the SAW in a half-space and in a sphere. The ensembles of SAW's used to define these hitting densities involve walks…

Simulations of the self-avoiding walk (SAW) are performed in a half-plane and a cut-plane (the complex plane with the positive real axis removed) using the pivot algorithm. We test the conjecture of Lawler, Schramm and Werner that the…

We study loop erased random walk (LERW) on the percolation cluster, with occupation probability $p\geq p_c$, in two and three dimensions. We find that the fractal dimensions of LERW$_p$ is close to normal LERW in Euclidean lattice, for all…

We present a real space renormalization-group map for probabilities of random walks on a hierarchical lattice. From this, we study the asymptotic behavior of the end-to-end distance of a weakly self- avoiding random walk (SARW) that…

Various types of walks on complex networks have been used in recent years to model search and navigation in several kinds of systems, with particular emphasis on random walks. This gives valuable information on network properties, but…

The $n$-vector spin model, which includes the self-avoiding walk (SAW) as a special case for the $n \rightarrow 0 $ limit, has an upper critical dimensionality at four spatial dimensions (4D). We simulate the SAW on 4D hypercubic lattices…

A random walk with echoed steps (RWES) is a process $\{\tilde{S}_n\}_{n\geq1}=\{\tilde{X}_1+\cdots+\tilde{X}_n\}_{n\geq1}$ that inserts memory and echo into an ordinary random walk (ORW) with i.i.d. steps, $X_1+\cdots+X_n$. The RWES is…
