We use new algorithms, based on the finite lattice method of series expansion, to extend the enumeration of self-avoiding walks and polygons on the triangular lattice to length 40 and 60, respectively. For self-avoiding walks to length 40…

Continuous time random Walk model has been versatile analytical formalism for studying and modeling diffusion processes in heterogeneous structures, such as disordered or porous media. We are studying the continuous limits of Heterogeneous…

Let $X=(V\!X,E\!X)$ be an infinite, locally finite, connected graph without loops or multiple edges. We consider the edges to be oriented, and $E\!X$ is equipped with an involution which inverts the orientation. Each oriented edge is…

Walks in a directed graph can be given a partially ordered structure that extends to possibly unconnected objects, called hikes. Studying the incidence algebra on this poset reveals unsuspected relations between walks and self-avoiding…

We study using large deviation theory the fluctuations of time-integrated functionals or observables of the unbiased random walk evolving on Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graphs, and construct a modified, biased random walk that explains how these…

Let $X$ be an infinite, locally finite, connected, quasi-transitive graph without loops or multiple edges. A graph height function on $X$ is a map adapted to the graph structure, assigning to every vertex an integer, called height. Bridges…

We study the asymptotic behavior of ``true" self-avoiding random walks on general infinite locally finite trees. In this model, the walk starts at the root and, at each step, from its current vertex chooses a neighboring edge to traverse…

Consider a transient near-critical (1,2) random walk on the positive half line. We give a criteria for the finiteness of the number of the skipped points (the points never visited) by the random walk. This result generalizes (partially) the…

Given a finite-range random walk on a finitely generated free group , what is the asymptotic behaviour, as the number of steps goes to infinity, of the sequence of probabilities that the random walk is at a given element of the group? In…

We study self-avoiding walks on three-dimensional critical percolation clusters using a new exact enumeration method. It overcomes the exponential increase in computation time by exploiting the clusters' fractal nature. We enumerate walks…

A continuous-time quantum walk is modelled using a graph. In this short paper, we provide lower bounds on the size of a graph that would allow for some quantum phenomena to occur. Among other things, we show that, in the adjacency matrix…

Quantum walks on graphs can model physical processes and serve as efficient tools in quantum information theory. Once we admit random variations in the connectivity of the underlying graph, we arrive at the problem of percolation, where the…

We prove existence of asymptotic entropy of random walks on regular languages over a finite alphabet and we give formulas for it. Furthermore, we show that the entropy varies real-analytically in terms of probability measures of constant…

This note is devoted to the study of the maximum of the excursion of a random walk with negative drift and light-tailed increments. More precisely, we determine the local asymptotics of the joint distribution of the length, maximum and the…

Refining previous results, we establish a sharp asymptotic estimate on the expected graph distance between the origin and the terminal point of the trace of the first $n$ steps of the walk. A similar conclusion is drawn for the resistance…

We consider random variables observed at arrival times of a renewal process, which possibly depends on those observations and has regularly varying steps with infinite mean. Due to the dependence and heavy tailed steps, the limiting…

We consider self-avoiding walks terminally attached to a surface at which they can adsorb. A force is applied, normal to the surface, to desorb the walk and we investigate how the behaviour depends on the vertex of the walk at which the…

It was discovered a few years ago that many networks in the real world exhibit self-similarity. A lot of researches on the structures and processes on real and artificial fractal complex networks have been done, drawing an analogy to…

We establish scaling limits for the random walk whose state space is the range of a simple random walk on the four-dimensional integer lattice. These concern the asymptotic behaviour of the graph distance from the origin and the spatial…

Distance-regular graphs are a key concept in Algebraic Combinatorics and have given rise to several generalizations, such as association schemes. Motivated by spectral and other algebraic characterizations of distance-regular graphs, we…
