We derive the exact form of the eigenvalue spectra of correlation matrices derived from a set of time-shifted, finite Brownian random walks (time-series). These matrices can be seen as random, real, asymmetric matrices with a special…

We study self avoiding random walks in an environment where sites are excluded randomly, in two and three dimensions. For a single polymer chain, we study the statistics of the time averaged monomer density and show that these are well…

We consider an ensemble of coupled oscillators whose individual states, in addition to the phase, are characterized by an internal variable with autonomous evolution. The time scale of this evolution is different for each oscillator, so…

The development of percolation theory was historically shaped by its numerous applications in various branches of science, in particular in statistical physics, and was mainly constrained to the case of Euclidean spaces. One of its central…

We introduce the pushy random walk, where a walker can push multiple obstacles, thereby penetrating large distances in environments with finite obstacle density. This process provides a minimal model for experimentally observed interactions…

We study self-avoiding walks on three-dimensional critical percolation clusters using a new exact enumeration method. It overcomes the exponential increase in computation time by exploiting the clusters' fractal nature. We enumerate walks…

We consider quantum walks defined on arbitrary infinite graphs, parameterized by a family of scattering matrices attached to the vertices. Multiplying each scattering matrix by an i.i.d. random phase, we obtain a random scattering quantum…

We show that the generalized diffusion coefficient of a subdiffusive intermittent map is a fractal function of control parameters. A modified continuous time random walk theory yields its coarse functional form and correctly describes a…

We study the properties of discrete-time random walks on networks formed by randomly interconnected cliques, namely, random networks of cliques. Our purpose is to derive the parameters that define the network structure -- specifically, the…

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…
