We calculate the large deviation function of the end-to-end distance and the corresponding extension-versus-force relation for (isotropic) random walks, on and off-lattice, with and without persistence, and in any spatial dimension. For…

We present further results on a class of sums which involve complex powers of the distance to points in a two-dimensional square lattice and trigonometric functions of their angle, supplementing those in a previous paper (McPhedran et al,…

We consider random walk and self-avoiding walk whose 1-step distribution is given by $D$, and oriented percolation whose bond-occupation probability is proportional to $D$. Suppose that $D(x)$ decays as $|x|^{-d-\alpha}$ with $\alpha>0$.…

We extend the application of lattice QCD to the two-photon-mediated, order $\alpha^2$ rare decay $\pi^0\rightarrow e^+ e^-$. By combining Minkowski- and Euclidean-space methods we are able to calculate the complex amplitude describing this…

Let $(Z_n)_{n\in\N}$ be a $d$-dimensional {\it random walk in random scenery}, i.e., $Z_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}Y(S_k)$ with $(S_k)_{k\in\N_0}$ a random walk in $\Z^d$ and $(Y(z))_{z\in\Z^d}$ an i.i.d. scenery, independent of the walk. The…

The asymptotic behaviour of the survival or reunion probability of vicious walks with short-range interactions is generally well studied. In many realistic processes, however, walks interact with a long ranged potential that decays in $d$…

We revisit the geometrically decaying step size given a positive inverse condition number, under which a locally Lipschitz function shows linear convergence. The positivity does not require the function to satisfy convexity, weak convexity,…

We prove decoupling inequalities for the Gaussian free field on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\geq 3$. As an application, we obtain exponential decay (with logarithmic correction for $d=3$) of the connectivity function of excursion sets for large…

We study independent long-range percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ where the vertices $u$ and $v$ are connected with probability asymptotic to $\frac{\beta}{\|u-v\|^{2d}}$ for $\|u-v\|_\infty\geq 2$ and with probability 1 for $\|u-v\|_\infty=1$,…

We study limit laws for simple random walks on supercritical long range percolation clusters on $\Z^d, d \geq 1$. For the long range percolation model, the probability that two vertices $x, y$ are connected behaves asymptotically as…

We consider a weighted lattice $Z^d$ with conductance $\mu_e=|e|^{-\alpha}$. We show that the heat kernel of a variable speed random walk on it satisfies a two-sided Gaussian bound by using an intrinsic metric. We also show that when $d=2$…
