We study a continuous time random walk on the $d$-dimensional lattice, subject to a drift and an attraction to large clusters of a subcritical Bernoulli site percolation. We find two distinct regimes: a ballistic one, and a subballistic one…

Deterministic walks over a random set of points in one and two dimensions (d=1,2) are considered. Points (``cities'') are randomly scattered in R^d following a uniform distribution. A walker (a ``tourist''), at each time step, goes to the…

We investigate the long-term behavior of a random walker evolving on top of the simple symmetric exclusion process (SSEP) at equilibrium, in dimension one. At each jump, the random walker is subject to a drift that depends on whether it is…

We consider d independent walkers on Z, m of them performing simple symmetric random walk and r = d -- m of them performing recurrent RWRE (Sinai walk), in I independent random environments. We show that the product is recurrent, almost…

In this work, we characterize cluster-invariant point processes for critical branching spatial processes on R d for all large enough d when the motion law is $\alpha$-stable or has a finite discrete range. More precisely, when the motion is…

We study the asymptotic position distribution of general quantum walks on a lattice, including walks with a random coin, which is chosen from step to step by a general Markov chain. In the unitary (i.e., non-random) case, we allow any…

We address the properties of continuous-time quantum walks with Hamiltonians of the form $\mathcal{H}= L + \lambda L^2$, being $L$ the Laplacian matrix of the underlying graph and being the perturbation $\lambda L^2$ motivated by its…

Random walkers characterized by random positions and random velocities lead to normal diffusion. A random walk was originally proposed by Einstein to model Brownian motion and to demonstrate the existence of atoms and molecules. Such a…

Scaling mobility patterns have been widely observed for animals. In this paper, we propose a deterministic walk model to understand the scaling mobility patterns, where walkers take the least-action walks on a lattice landscape and prey.…

We show that Activated Random Walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ is explosive above criticality. That is, activating a single particle in a supercritical state of sleeping particles triggers an infinite avalanche of activity with positive probability.…

We study the statistics of the number of records R_{n,N} for N identical and independent symmetric discrete-time random walks of n steps in one dimension, all starting at the origin at step 0. At each time step, each walker jumps by a…

Consider the dynamic environment governed by a Poissonian field of independent particles evolving as simple random walks on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The random walk on random walks model refers to a particular stochastic process on $\mathbb{Z}^d$…

In the first part of this paper, we enumerate exactly walks on the square lattice that start from the origin, but otherwise avoid the non positive horizontal half-axis. We call them "walks on the slit plane". We count them by their length,…

For a random walk $S_n$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ we study the asymptotic behaviour of the associated centre of mass process $G_n = n^{-1} \sum_{i=1}^n S_i$. For lattice distributions we give conditions for a local limit theorem to hold. We prove…

Subcritical catalytic branching random walk on d-dimensional lattice is studied. New theorems concerning the asymptotic behavior of distributions of local particles numbers are established. To prove the results different approaches are used…

Activated Random Walks, on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for any $d\geqslant 1$, is an interacting particle system, where particles can be in either of two states: active or frozen. Each active particle performs a continuous-time simple random walk during…

We investigate active lattice walks: biased continuous time random walks which perform orientational diffusion between lattice directions in one and two spatial dimensions. We study the occupation probability of an arbitrary site on the…

The dynamics of the avalanche width in the evolution model is described using a random walk picture. In this approach the critical exponents for avalanche distribution, $\tau$, and avalanche average time, $\gamma$, are found to be the same…

Let $r: S\times S\to \bb R_+$ be the jump rates of an irreducible random walk on a finite set $S$, reversible with respect to some probability measure $m$. For $\alpha >1$, let $g: \bb N\to \bb R_+$ be given by $g(0)=0$, $g(1)=1$, $g(k) =…

We consider a continuous-time symmetric branching random walk on the $d$-dimensional lattice, $d\ge 1$, and assume that at the initial moment there is one particle at every lattice point. Moreover, we assume that the underlying random walk…
