Abstract

We study a system of coalescing random walks on the integer lattice Zd\mathbb{Z}^{d} in which the walk is oriented in the dd-th direction and follows certain specified rules. We first study the geometry of the paths and show that, almost surely, the paths from a graph consisting of just one tree for dimentions d=2,3d=2,3 and infinitely many disjoint trees for dimensions d4d\geq 4. Also, there is no bi-infinite path in the graph almost surely for d2d\geq 2. Subsequently, we prove that for d=2d=2 the diffusive scaling of this system converges in distribution to the Brownian web.
