In this note we give various characterizations of random walks with possibly different steps that have relatively large discrepancy from the uniform distribution modulo a prime p, and use these results to study the distribution of the rank…

We study eigenvalue distribution of the adjacency matrix $A^{(N,p,q)}$ of weighted random uniform $q$-hypergraphs $\Gamma= \Gamma_{N,p,q}$. We assume that the graphs have $N$ vertices and the average number of hyperedges attached to one…

In a first part, using the recent measure classification results of Eskin--Lindenstrauss, we give a criterion to ensure a.s. equidistribution of empirical measures of an i.i.d. random walk on a homogeneous space $G/\Gamma$. Employing…

Motivated by an investigation of ground state properties of randomly charged polymers, we discuss the size distribution of the largest Q-segments (segments with total charge Q) in such N-mers. Upon mapping the charge sequence to…

This thesis examines linearly edge-reinforced random walks on infinite trees. In particular, recurrence and transience of such random walks on general (fixed) trees as well as on Galton-Watson trees (i.e. random trees) is characterized, and…

A fundamental insight in the theory of diffusive random walks is that the mean length of trajectories traversing a finite open system is independent of the details of the diffusion process. Instead, the mean trajectory length depends only…

We construct explicit invariant measures for a family of infinite products of random, independent, identically-distributed elements of SL(2,C). The matrices in the product are such that one entry is gamma-distributed along a ray in the…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the Random-Walk Metropolis algorithm on probability densities with two different `scales', where most of the probability mass is distributed along certain key directions with the…

We study the overlaps between right and left eigenvectors for random matrices of the spherical and truncated unitary ensembles. Conditionally on all eigenvalues, diagonal overlaps are shown to be distributed as a product of independent…
