We show that anomalous diffusion can result when the steps of a random walk are not statistically independent. We present an algorithm that counts all the possible paths of particles diffusing on random graphs with arbitrary degree…

We consider a random walk in a random environment (RWRE) on the strip of finite width $\mathbb{Z} \times \{1,2,\ldots,d\}$. We prove both quenched and averaged large deviation principles for the position and the hitting times of the RWRE.…

We consider the random walk in an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random environment on a Cayley graph of a finite free product of copies of $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb{Z}_2$. Such a Cayley graph is readily seen to be a…

We study random walks in i.i.d. random environments on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ when there are two basic types of vertices, which we call "blue" and "red". Each color represents a different probability distribution on transition probability vectors.…

In this paper, we introduce random walks with absorbing states on simplicial complexes. Given a simplicial complex of dimension $d$, a random walk with an absorbing state is defined which relates to the spectrum of the $k$-dimensional…

A measure on a locally compact group is called spread out if one of its convolution powers is not singular with respect to Haar measure. Using Markov chain theory, we conduct a detailed analysis of random walks on homogeneous spaces with…

We introduce the notion of a "random basic walk" on an infinite graph, give numerous examples, list potential applications, and provide detailed comparisons between the random basic walk and existing generalizations of simple random walks.…

Consider a discrete-time simple random walk $(X_t)_{t\ge 0}$ on an infinite, connected, locally finite graph $G$. Let $R_t := |\{X_0,\dots,X_t\}|$ denote its range at time $t$, and $T_n:=\inf\{t\ge 0: R_t= n\}$ the $n-$th discovery time. We…

This paper is concerned with random walks on a family of dyadic-valued solvable matrix groups. A description of the Poisson boundary of these groups for probability measures of finite first moment and non-zero displacements (or drifts) is…

We prove that metric graph with the minimal growth of the number of possible endpoints of a random walk is the union of several linear paths coming out of the same vertex

We consider a random walk $\tilde S$ which has different increment distributions in positive and negative half-planes. In the upper half-plane the increments are mean-zero i.i.d. with finite variance. In the lower half-plane we consider two…

In this article we define and study a stochastic process on Galoisian covers of compact manifolds. The successive positions of the process are defined recursively by picking a point uniformly in the Dirichlet domain of the previous one. We…

Consider the uniform random graph $G(n,M)$ with $n$ vertices and $M$ edges. Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi (1960) conjectured that the limit $$ \lim_{n \to \infty} \Pr\{G(n,\textstyle{n\over 2}) is planar}} $$ exists and is a constant strictly…

A natural extension of a right-continuous integer-valued random walk is one which can jump to the right by one or two units. First passage times above a given fixed level then admit a tractable Laplace transform (probability generating…

We study a random walk on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbf{F}_p)$ where new elements are produced by randomly applying adjoint operators of two generators. Focusing on the generic case where the generators are selected at random, we…

We consider a system of independent random walks in a common random environment. Previously, a hydrodynamic limit for the system of RWRE was proved under the assumption that the random walks were transient with positive speed. In this paper…

We study the behavior of Random Walk in Random Environment (RWRE) on trees in the critical case left open in previous work. Representing the random walk by an electrical network, we assume that the ratios of resistances of neighboring edges…

This paper has two main results, which are connected through the fact that the first is a key ingredient in the second. Both are extensions of results concerning directional transience of nearest-neighbor random walks in random environments…

We prove a scaling limit theorem for the simple random walk on critical lattice trees in $\mathbb{Z}^d$, for $d\geq 8$. The scaling limit is the Brownian motion on the Integrated Super-Brownian Excursion (BISE) which is the same one that we…

We study a random walk in random environment on the non-negative integers. The random environment is not homogeneous in law, but is a mixture of two kinds of site, one in asymptotically vanishing proportion. The two kinds of site are (i)…
