We consider walks on the edges of the square lattice $\mathbb Z^2$ which obey \emph{two-step rules,} which allow (or forbid) steps in a given direction to be followed by steps in another direction. We classify these rules according to a…
We establish recurrence criteria for sums of independent random variables which take values in Euclidean lattices of varying dimension. In particular, we describe transient inhomogenous random walks in the plane which interlace two…
We construct a new type of quantum walks on simplicial complexes as a natural extension of the well-known Szegedy walk on graphs. One can numerically observe that our proposing quantum walks possess linear spreading and localization as in…
We investigate a space-inhomogeneous discrete-time quantum walk in one dimension. We show that the walk exhibits localization by a path counting method.
Let $G$ be a connected simple real Lie group, $\Lambda_{0}\subseteq G$ a lattice and $\Lambda \unlhd \Lambda_{0}$ a normal subgroup such that $\Lambda_{0}/\Lambda\simeq \mathbb{Z}^d$. We study the drift of a random walk on the…
The Scattering Quantum Random Walk scheme has found success as a basis for search algorithms on highly symmetric graph structures. In this paper we examine its effectiveness at locating a specially marked vertex on square grid graphs,…
We establish a central limit theorem, a local limit theorem, and a law of large numbers for a natural random walk on a symmetric space $M$ of non-compact type and rank one. This class of spaces, which includes the complex and quaternionic…
Simple random walks on a partially directed version of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ are considered. More precisely, vertical edges between neighbouring vertices of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ can be traversed in both directions (they are undirected) while horizontal…
In this paper we continue our study of a multidimensional random walk with zero mean and finite variance killed on leaving a cone. We suggest a new approach that allows one to construct a positive harmonic function in Lipschitz cones under…
We have calculated long series expansions for self-avoiding walks and polygons on the honeycomb lattice, including series for metric properties such as mean-squared radius of gyration as well as series for moments of the area-distribution…
Random walks describe diffusion processes, where movement at every time step is restricted to only the neighbouring locations. We construct a quantum random walk algorithm, based on discretisation of the Dirac evolution operator inspired by…
We study the winding behavior of random walks on two oriented square lattices. One common feature of these walks is that they are bound to revolve clockwise. We also obtain quantitative results of transience/recurrence for each walk.
The lackadaisical quantum walk is a lazy version of a discrete-time, coined quantum walk, where each vertex has a weighted self-loop that permits the walker to stay put. They have been used to speed up spatial search on a variety of graphs,…
We give the exact solution to the problem of a random walk on the Bethe lattice through a mapping on an asymmetric random walk on the half-line. We also study the continuous limit of this model, and discuss in detail the relation between…
In this paper, we consider the quantum walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ with attachment of one-length path periodically. This small modification to $\mathbb{Z}$ provides localization of the quantum walk. The eigenspace causing this localization is…
This paper is concerned with the continuous-time quantum walk on Z, Z^d, and infinite homogeneous trees. By using the generating function method, we compute the limit of the average probability distribution for the general isotropic walk on…
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,…
Random walks on general graphs play an important role in the understanding of the general theory of stochastic processes. Beyond their fundamental interest in probability theory, they arise also as simple models of physical systems. A brief…
We derive a local limit theorem for normal, moderate, and large deviations for symmetric simple random walk on the square lattice in dimensions one and two that is an improvement of existing results for points that are particularly distant…
