We study simple random walk on the class of random planar maps which can be encoded by a two-dimensional random walk with i.i.d. increments or a two-dimensional Brownian motion via a "mating-of-trees" type bijection. This class includes the…
We introduce a general technique for proving estimates for certain random planar maps which belong to the $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) universality class for $\gamma \in (0,2)$. The family of random planar maps we consider are…
Let $M$ be the infinite spanning-tree-weighted random planar map, which is the local limit of finite random planar maps sampled with probability proportional to the number of spanning trees they admit. We show that a.s. the…
Consider a discrete-time simple random walk $(X_t)_{t\ge 0}$ on an infinite, connected, locally finite graph $G$. Let $R_t := |\{X_0,\dots,X_t\}|$ denote its range at time $t$, and $T_n:=\inf\{t\ge 0: R_t= n\}$ the $n-$th discovery time. We…
We prove that any distributional limit of finite planar graphs in which the degree of the root has an exponential tail is almost surely recurrent. As a corollary, we obtain that the uniform infinite planar triangulation and quadrangulation…
We study the random planar map obtained from a critical, finite variance, Galton-Watson plane tree by adding the horizontal connections between successive vertices at each level. This random graph is closely related to the well-known causal…
A mated-CRT map is a random planar map obtained as a discretized mating of correlated continuum random trees. Mated-CRT maps provide a coarse-grained approximation of many other natural random planar map models (e.g., uniform triangulations…
We prove a scaling limit result for random walk on certain random planar maps with its natural time parametrization. In particular, we show that for $\gamma \in (0,2)$, the random walk on the mated-CRT map with parameter $\gamma$ converges…
Quantum walks with long-range steps $R^{-\gamma}$ ($R$ being the distance between sites) on a discrete line behave in similar ways for all $\gamma\geq2$. This is in contrast to classical random walks, which for $\gamma >3$ belong to a…
We study analytically the order statistics of a time series generated by the successive positions of a symmetric random walk of n steps with step lengths of finite variance \sigma^2. We show that the statistics of the gap d_{k,n}=M_{k,n}…
We survey recent results of normal and anomalous diffusion of two types of random motions with long memory in ${\Bbb R}^d$ or ${\Bbb Z}^d$. The first class consists of random walks on ${\Bbb Z}^d$ in divergence-free random drift field,…
We study whether the probability distribution of a discrete quantum walk can get arbitrarily close to uniform, given that the walk starts with a uniform superposition of the outgoing arcs of some vertex. We establish a characterization of…
Starting from a simple animal-biology example, a general, somewhat counter-intuitive property of diffusion random walks is presented. It is shown that for any (non-homogeneous) purely diffusing system, under any isotropic uniform incidence,…
A constrained diffusive random walk of n steps and a random flight in Rd, which can be expressed in the same terms, were investigated independently in recent papers. The n steps of the walk are identically and independently distributed…
We study the entropy of the distribution of the set R_n of vertices visited by a simple random walk on a graph with bounded degrees in its first n steps. It is shown that this quantity grows linearly in the expected size of R_n if the graph…
We show that anomalous diffusion can result when the steps of a random walk are not statistically independent. We present an algorithm that counts all the possible paths of particles diffusing on random graphs with arbitrary degree…
We propose random walks on suitably defined graphs as a framework for finescale modeling of particle motion in an obstructed environment where the particle may have interactions with the obstructions and the mean path length of the particle…
We study simple random walk on the uniform spanning tree on Z^2 . We obtain estimates for the transition probabilities of the random walk, the distance of the walk from its starting point after n steps, and exit times of both Euclidean…
We establish universality of cutoff for simple random walk on a class of random graphs defined as follows. Given a finite graph $G=(V,E)$ with $|V|$ even we define a random graph $ G^*=(V,E \cup E')$ obtained by picking $E'$ to be the…
We study a one-dimensional random walk among random conductances, with unbounded jumps. Assuming the ergodicity of the collection of conductances and a few other technical conditions (uniform ellipticity and polynomial bounds on the tails…
