We study quenched distributions on random walks in a random potential on integer lattices of arbitrary dimension and with an arbitrary finite set of admissible steps. The potential can be unbounded and can depend on a few steps of the walk.…

Consider an arbitrary transient random walk on $\Z^d$ with $d\in\N$. Pick $\alpha\in[0,\infty)$ and let $L_n(\alpha)$ be the spatial sum of the $\alpha$-th power of the $n$-step local times of the walk. Hence, $L_n(0)$ is the range,…

We prove existence of asymptotic entropy of random walks on regular languages over a finite alphabet and we give formulas for it. Furthermore, we show that the entropy varies real-analytically in terms of probability measures of constant…

We consider the Nonlinear-Cost Random Walk model in discrete time introduced in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 130, 237102 (2023)], where a fee is charged for each jump of the walker. The nonlinear cost function is such that slow/short jumps incur a…

We consider one-dimensional discrete-time random walks (RWs) of $n$ steps, starting from $x_0=0$, with arbitrary symmetric and continuous jump distributions $f(\eta)$, including the important case of L\'evy flights. We study the statistics…

We study a non-Markovian random walk in dimension 1. It depends on two parameters eps_r and eps_l, the probabilities to go straight on when walking to the right, respectively to the left. The position x of the walk after n steps and the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group acting on a geodesic Gromov-hyperbolic metric space $X$ and $\mu$ a probability measure on $\Gamma$ whose support generates a non-elementary subsemigroup. Under the assumption that $\mu$ has a finite…

The involution walk is the random walk on $S_n$ generated by involutions with a binomially distributed with parameter $1-p$ number of $2$-cycles. This is a parallelization of the transposition walk. The involution walk is shown in this…

We investigate the time averaged squared displacement (TASD) of continuous time random walks with respect to the number of steps $N$, which the random walker performed during the data acquisition time $T$. We prove that the TASD, and as…

The one-dimensional elephant random walk is a typical model of discrete-time random walk with step-reinforcement, and is introduced by Sch\"{u}tz and Trimper (2004). It has a parameter $\alpha \in (-1,1)$: The case $\alpha=0$ corresponds to…

We study the one-dimensional branching random walk in the case when the step size distribution has a stretched exponential tail, and, in particular, no finite exponential moments. The tail of the step size $X$ decays as $\mathbb{P}[X \geq…
