We consider random self-avoiding walks between two points on the boundary of a finite subdomain of Z^d (the probability of a self-avoiding trajectory gamma is proportional to mu^{-length(gamma)}). We show that the random trajectory becomes…

A random walk in random scenery $(Y_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ is given by $Y_n=\xi_{S_n}$ for a random walk $(S_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ and iid random variables $(\xi_n)_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}$. In this paper, we will show the weak convergence of the…

We extend some properties of random walks on hyperbolic groups to random walks on convergence groups. In particular we prove that if a convergence group $G$ acts on a compact metrizable space $M$ with the convergence property then we can…

We consider a random walker in a dynamic random environment given by a system of independent simple symmetric random walks. We obtain ballisticity results under two types of perturbations: low particle density, and strong local drift on…

Inspired by the study of edge statistics of random band matrices, we investigate random walks on large $d$-dimensional periodic lattices, whose transition matrices are determined by discretized density functions. Under certain moment…

We consider Sinai's random walk in random environment. We prove that for an interval of time [1,n] Sinai's walk sojourns in a small neighborhood of the point of localization for the quasi totality of this amount of time. Moreover the local…

We study continuous-time (variable speed) random walks in random environments on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\ge2$, where, at time $t$, the walk at $x$ jumps across edge $(x,y)$ at time-dependent rate $a_t(x,y)$. The rates, which we assume stationary…

Random walks in random scenery are processes defined by $Z_n:=\sum_{k=1}^n\xi_{X_1+...+X_k}$, where $(X_k,k\ge 1)$ and $(\xi_y,y\in\mathbb Z)$ are two independent sequences of i.i.d. random variables. We assume here that their distributions…

Strong theorems are given for the maximal local time on balls and subspaces for the $d$-dimensional simple symmetric random walk.

One can define a random walk on a hypercubic lattice in a space of integer dimension $D$. For such a process formulas can be derived that express the probability of certain events, such as the chance of returning to the origin after a given…

In this paper we study convergence of random walks, on finite quantum groups, arising from linear combination of irreducible characters. We bound the distance to the Haar state and determine the asymptotic behavior, i.e. the limit state if…

We consider a system of independent one-dimensional random walks in a common random environment under the condition that the random walks are transient with positive speed $v_P$. We give upper bounds on the quenched probability that at…

We study arithmetic properties of short uniform random walks in arbitrary dimensions, with a focus on explicit (hypergeometric) evaluations of the moment functions and probability densities in the case of up to five steps. Somewhat to our…

We consider a random walk on $\Z$ that branches at the origin only. In the supercritical regime we establish a law of large number for the maximal position $M_n$. Then we determine all possible limiting law for the sequence $M_n -\alpha n$…

We investigate excited random walks on $\Z^d, d\ge 1,$ and on planar strips $\Z\times\{0,1,...,L-1\}$ which have a drift in a given direction. The strength of the drift may depend on a random i.i.d. environment and on the local time of the…

We study the dynamics of random walks hopping on homogeneous hyper-cubic lattices and multiplying at a fertile site. In one and two dimensions, the total number $\mathcal{N}(t)$ of walkers grows exponentially at a Malthusian rate depending…

We consider integer-valued random walks with independent but not identically distributed increments, and extend to this context several classical estimates, including a local limit theorem, precise small-ball estimates (both conditional on…

We consider one-dependent random walks on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in random hypergeometric environment for $d\ge 3$. These are memory-one walks in a large class of environments parameterized by positive weights on directed edges and on pairs of…

We study models of continuous time, symmetric, $\Z^d$-valued random walks in random environments. One of our aims is to derive estimates on the decay of transition probabilities in a case where a uniform ellipticity assumption is absent. We…

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the number of rarely visited edges (i.e., edges that visited only once) of a simple symmetric random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$. Let $\alpha(n)$ be the number of rarely visited edges up to time…
