We consider random walk $(X_n)_{n\geq0}$ on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in a space--time product environment $\omega\in\Omega$. We take the point of view of the particle and focus on the environment Markov chain $(T_{n,X_n}\omega)_{n\geq0}$ where $T$…

We investigate large deviations for the empirical measure of the position and momentum of a particle traveling in a box with hot walls. The particle travels with uniform speed from left to right, until it hits the right boundary. Then it is…
