In this paper, we study random walks evolving on Z in a dynamic random environment that we assume to have time correlations that decrease polynomially fast. We show a law of large numbers by generalizing methods already used for the…

We give an elementary probabilistic proof of Veraverbeke's Theorem for the asymptotic distribution of the maximum of a random walk with negative drift and heavy-tailed increments. The proof gives insight into the principle that the maximum…

We investigate reflected random walks in the quarter plane, with particular emphasis on the time spent along the reflection boundary axes. Assuming the drift of the random walk lies within the cone, the local time converges -- without the…

We prove a quenched central limit theorem for random walks with bounded increments in a randomly evolving environment on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. We assume that the transition probabilities of the walk depend not too strongly on the environment and…

The usual development of the continuous-time random walk (CTRW) proceeds by assuming that the present is one of the jumping times. Under this restrictive assumption integral equations for the propagator and mean escape times have been…

We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of a class of self-interacting nearest neighbour random walks on the one-dimensional integer lattice which are pushed by a particular linear combination of their own local time on edges in the…

In this paper, we consider the subcritical branching random walk in a random environment. We assume the branching and the step jump are independent; and the branching is in random envirenment, i.e., the particles in generation $n$ produce…

We study an extended dynamical system on the non-negative real line with piecewise linear non-uniformly expanding local dynamics. With a uniformly distributed initial state, the distribution of successive states coincides with that of a…

In this paper, we reveal the branching structure for a non-homogeneous random walk with bounded jumps. The ladder time $T_1,$ the first hitting time of $[1,\infty)$ by the walk starting from $0,$ could be expressed in terms of a…

We consider a one dimensional random-walk-like process, whose steps are centered Gaussians with variances which are determined according to the sequence of arrivals of a Poisson process on the line. This process is decorated by independent…

We establish a sufficient condition for the tightness of a sequence of stochastic processes. Our condition makes it possible to study processes with accumulations of fixed times of discontinuity. Our motivation comes from the study of…

We consider recursion equations of the form $u_{n+1}(x)=Q[u_n](x),~n\ge 1,~x\in R$, with a non-local operator $Q[u](x)= g( u\ast q)$, where $g$ is a polynomial, satisfying $g(0)=0$, $g(1)=1$, $g((0,1)) \subseteq (0,1)$, and $q$ is a…

We consider a nearest-neighbor, one-dimensional random walk $\{X_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ in a random i.i.d. environment, in the regime where the walk is transient with speed v_P > 0 and there exists an $s\in(1,2)$ such that the annealed law of…
