In the present paper, we determine the full spectrum of the simple random walk on finite, complete $d$-ary trees. We also find an eigenbasis for the transition matrix. As an application, we apply our results to get a lower bound for the…
We are interested in the biased random walk on a supercritical Galton--Watson tree in the sense of Lyons, Pemantle and Peres, and study a phenomenon of slow movement. In order to observe such a slow movement, the bias needs to be random;…
We study asymptotic behavior, for large time $n$, of the transition probability of a two-dimensional random walk killed when entering into a non-empty finite subset $A$. We show that it behaves like $4 \tilde u_A(x) \tilde u_{-A}(-y) (\lg…
We present an easy proof of Polya's theorem on random walks: with the probability one a random walk on the two-dimensional lattice returns to the starting point.
We determine the precise asymptotic behaviour (in space) of the Green kernel of simple random walk with drift on the Diestel-Leader graph $DL(q,r)$, where $q,r \ge 2$. The latter is the horocyclic product of two homogeneous trees with…
We study random walks on relatively hyperbolic groups whose law is convergent, in the sense that the derivative of its Green function is finite at the spectral radius.When parabolic subgroups are virtually abelian, we prove that for such a…
We consider a discrete time random walk in one dimension. At each time step the walker jumps by a random distance, independent from step to step, drawn from an arbitrary symmetric density function. We show that the expected positive maximum…
We consider on-diagonal heat kernel estimates and the laws of the iterated logarithms for a switch-walk-switch random walk on a lamplighter graph under the condition that the random walk on the underlying graph enjoys sub-Gaussian heat…
We consider a variant of random walks on finite groups. At each step, we choose an element from a set of generators ("directions") uniformly, and an integer from a power law ("speed") distribution associated with the chosen direction. We…
We prove a new inequality bounding the probability that the random walk on a group has small total displacement in terms of the spectral and isoperimetric profiles of the group. This inequality implies that if the random walk on the group…
We identify a relationship between a certain family of random walks on Euclidean lattices and difference matrices over cyclic groups. We then use the techniques of Fourier analysis to estimate the return probabilities of these random walks,…
In this paper, we obtain a local limit theorem for the Kemperman's model of oscillating random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$; it extends the existing results for classical random walks on $\mathbb Z$ or reflected random walks on $\mathbb N_0$. The…
We study a system of coalescing continuous-time random walks starting from every site on $\mathbb{Z}$, where the jump increments lie in the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable distribution with $\alpha\in(0,1]$. We establish sharp…
We consider a centered random walk with finite variance and investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the probability that the area under this walk remains positive up to a large time $n$. Assuming that the moment of order $2+\delta$ is…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of random walks in i.i.d. random environments on $\Z^d$. The environments need not be elliptic, so some steps may not be available to the random walker. We prove a monotonicity result for the velocity (when…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated group equipped with a finite symmetric generating set and the associated word length function $|\cdot |$. We study the behavior of the probability of return for random walks driven by symmetric measures $\mu$…
On a transient weighted graph, there are two models of random walk which continue after reaching infinity: random interlacements, and random walk reflected off of infinity, recently introduced in arXiv:2506.18827 [math.PR]. We prove these…
We prove a strong law of large numbers and an annealed invariance principle for a random walk in a one-dimensional dynamic random environment evolving as the simple exclusion process with jump parameter $\gamma$. First, we establish that if…
In the present paper, we study an explicit effect of non-symmetry on asymptotics of the $n$-step transition probability as $n\rightarrow \infty$ for a class of non-symmetric random walks on the triangular lattice. Realizing the triangular…
Elephant random walks were studied recently in \cite{mukherjee2025elephant} on the groups $\mathbb{Z}^{*d_1} * \mathbb{Z}_2^{*d_2}$ whose Cayley graphs are infinite $d$-regular trees with $d = 2d_1 + d_2$. It was found that for $d \ge 3$,…
