We consider $d$ independent walkers in the same random environment in $\mathbb{Z}$. Our assumption on the law of the environment is such that a single walker is transient to the right but subballistic. We show that - no matter what $d$ is -…

Motivated by the random Lorentz gas, we study deterministic walks in random environment and show that (in simple, yet relevant, cases) they can be reduced to a class of random walks in random environment where the jump probability depends…

In this paper, we study random walks evolving with a directional bias in a two-dimensional random environment with correlations that vanish polynomially. Using renormalization methods first employed for one-dimensional dynamic environments…

We prove an invariance principle for the bridge of a random walk conditioned to stay positive, when the random walk is in the domain of attraction of a stable law, both in the discrete and in the absolutely continuous setting. This includes…

This is the third in a series of papers in which we consider one-dimensional Random Walk in Cooling Random Environment (RWCRE). The latter is obtained by starting from one-dimensional Random Walk in Random Environment (RWRE) and resampling…

An intrinsic multitype branching structure within the transient (1;R)-RWRE is revealed. The branching structure enables us to specify the density of the absolutely continuous invariant measure for the environments seen from the particle and…

We introduce the concept of a deterministic walk in a deterministic environment on a countable state space (DWDE). For the deterministic walk in a fixed environment we establish properties analogous to those found in Markov chain theory,…

We consider a recurrent random walk (RW) in random environment (RE) on a strip. We prove that if the RE is i. i. d. and its distribution is not supported by an algebraic subsurface in the space of parameters defining the RE then the RW…

There are many fields where the transition from diffusive to ballistic motion is important. Here we deal with relaxation processes in nmr in gases. Correlation functions for trajectory variables (position and velocity) valid across this…

We study the persistence exponent for the first passage time of a random walk below the trajectory of another random walk. More precisely, let $\{B_n\}$ and $\{W_n\}$ be two centered, weakly dependent random walks. We establish that…

We are concerned with random walks on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\geq 3$, in an i.i.d. random environment with transition probabilities $\epsilon$-close to those of simple random walk. We assume that the environment is balanced in one fixed…

A Random Walk in Changing Environment (RWCE) is a weighted random walk on a locally finite, connected graph $G$ with random, time-dependent edge-weights. This includes self-interacting random walks, where the edge-weights depend on the…

In the setting of multidimensional diffusions in random environment, we carry on the investigation of condition $(T')$, introduced by Sznitman [Ann. Probab. 29 (2001) 723--764] and by Schmitz [Ann. Inst. H. Poincar\'{e} Probab. Statist. 42…

We consider random walks in a random environment of the type p_0+\gamma\xi_z, where p_0 denotes the transition probabilities of a stationary random walk on \BbbZ^d, to nearest neighbors, and \xi_z is an i.i.d. random perturbation. We give…

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…
