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…

We study continuous time Markov processes on graphs. The notion of frequency is introduced, which serves well as a scaling factor between any Markov time of a continuous time Markov process and that of its jump chain. As an application, we…

This paper focuses on Majority Dynamics in sparse graphs, in particular, as a tool to study internal cuts. It is known that, in Majority Dynamics on a finite graph, each vertex eventually either comes to a fixed state, or oscillates with…

We establish tightness of graph-based stochastic processes in the space $D[0+\epsilon,1-\epsilon]$ with $\epsilon >0$ that allows for discontinuities of the first kind. The graph-based stochastic processes are based on statistics…

We investigate the distribution of the time spent by a random walker to the right of a boundary moving with constant velocity v. For the continuous-time problem (Brownian motion), we provide a simple alternative proof of Newman's recent…

Let $\zeta$ be Euclidean norm of the degree sequence of a graph normalized by the graph size. We prove that when the vertices of a graph are randomly colored with $s$ colors such that the fraction of vertices in each color class is bounded…

We study the time-averaged flow in a model of particles that randomly hop on a finite directed graph. In the limit as the number of particles and the time window go to infinity but the graph remains finite, the large-deviation rate…

In this paper we consider a dynamic Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph with independent identically distributed edge processes. Our aim is to describe the joint evolution of the entries of a subgraph count vector. The main result of this…

In this paper, we establish a quenched invariance principle for the random walk on a certain class of infinite, aperiodic, oriented random planar graphs called "T-graphs" [Kenyon-Sheffield04]. These graphs appear, together with the…

In this article, we develop a theory for understanding the traces left by a random walk in the vicinity of a randomly chosen reference vertex. The analysis is related to interlacements but goes beyond previous research by showing weak limit…
