In this paper, we study favorite sites of one-dimensional asymmetric simple random walks. We show that almost surely, for any fixed integer $r\geq 1$, ``$r$ favorite sites" occurs infinitely often. We also give the asymptotic growth rate of…

The validity of the strong law of large numbers for multiple sums $S_n$ of independent identically distributed random variables $Z_k$, $k\leq n$, with $r$-dimensional indices is equivalent to the integrability of $|Z|(\log^+|Z|)^{r-1}$,…

Consider the dynamic environment governed by a Poissonian field of independent particles evolving as simple random walks on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The random walk on random walks model refers to a particular stochastic process on $\mathbb{Z}^d$…

Suppose that $X$ is a simple random walk on $\Z_n^d$ for $d \geq 3$ and, for each $t$, we let $\U(t)$ consist of those $x \in \Z_n^d$ which have not been visited by $X$ by time $t$. Let $\tcov$ be the expected amount of time that it takes…

We define a dynamical simple symmetric random walk in one dimension, and show that there almost surely exist exceptional times at which the walk tends to infinity. This is in contrast to the usual dynamical simple symmetric random walk in…

Considering a simple symmetric random walk in dimension $d\geq 3$, we study the almost sure joint asymptotic behavior of two objects: first the local times of a pair of neighboring points, then the local time of a point and the occupation…

We study the evolution of a random walker on a conservative dynamic random environment composed of independent particles performing simple symmetric random walks, generalizing results of [16] to higher dimensions and more general transition…

In this paper, we study random walks evolving on Z in a dynamic random environment that we assume to have time correlations that decrease polynomially fast. We show a law of large numbers by generalizing methods already used for the…

We introduce and study a class of random walks defined on the integer lattice $ \mathbb{Z} ^d$ -- a discrete space and time counterpart of the symmetric $\alpha$-stable process in $\mathbb{R} ^d$. When $0< \alpha <2$ any coordinate axis in…

We study recurrence properties and the validity of the (weak) law of large numbers for (discrete time) processes which, in the simplest case, are obtained from simple symmetric random walk on $\Z$ by modifying the distribution of a step…

We prove the law of large numbers for the drift of random walks on the two-dimensional lamplighter group, under the assumption that the random walk has finite $(2+\epsilon)$-moment. This result is in contrast with classical examples of…

A random walk starts from the origin of a d-dimensional lattice. The occupation number n(x,t) equals unity if after t steps site x has been visited by the walk, and zero otherwise. We study translationally invariant sums M(t) of observables…

Let $(X_t,t\geq0)$ be a continuous time simple random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\geq3$), and let $l_T(x)$ be the time spent by $(X_t,t\geq0)$ on the site $x$ up to time $T$. We prove a large deviations principle for the $q$-fold…

We consider the sums $T_N=\sum_{n=1}^N F(S_n)$ where $S_n$ is a random walk on $\mathbb Z^d$ and $F:\mathbb Z^d\to \mathbb R$ is a global observable, that is, a bounded function which admits an average value when averaged over large cubes.…

We prove that the law of a random walk $X_n$ is determined by the one-dimensional distributions of $\max(X_n, 0)$ for $n = 1, 2, \ldots$, as conjectured recently by Lo\"ic Chaumont and Ron Doney. Equivalently, the law of $X_n$ is determined…
