We present a general theorem on the structure of bivariate generating functions which gives sufficient conditions such that the limiting probability distribution is a half-normal distribution. If $X$ is a normally distributed random…

We consider point-to-point directed paths in a random environment on the two-dimensional integer lattice. For a general independent environment under mild assumptions we show that the quenched energy of a typical path satisfies a central…

Models like support vector machines or Gaussian process regression often require positive semi-definite kernels. These kernels may be based on distance functions. While definiteness is proven for common distances and kernels, a proof for a…

In this article, we consider several models of random walks in one or several dimensions, additionally allowing, at any unit of time, a reset (or "catastrophe") of the walk with probability $q$. We establish the distribution of the final…

We consider a class of lattice paths with certain restrictions on their ascents and down steps and use them as building blocks to construct various families of Dyck paths. We let every building block $P_j$ take on $c_j$ colors and count all…

We present general algorithms (fully implemented in Maple) for calculations of various quantities related to constrained directed walks for a general set of steps on the square lattice in two dimensions. As a special case, we rederive…

We consider a continuous-time branching random walk on a multidimensional lattice in a random branching medium. It is theoretically known that, in such branching random walks, large rare fluctuations of the medium may lead to anomalous…

We consider a branching random walk on the lattice, where the branching rates are given by an i.i.d. Pareto random potential. We describe the process, including a detailed shape theorem, in terms of a system of growing lilypads. As an…

We begin our analysis with the study of two collections of lattice paths in the plane, denoted $\mathcal{D}_{[n,i,j]}$ and $\mathcal{P}_{[n,i,j]}$. These paths consist of sequences of $n$ steps, where each step allows movement in three…

We present a computer-aided, yet fully rigorous, proof of Ira Gessel's tantalizingly simply-stated conjecture that the number of ways of walking $2n$ steps in the region $x+y \geq 0, y \geq 0$ of the square-lattice with unit steps in the…

This paper introduces nondeterministic walks, a new variant of one-dimensional discrete walks. At each step, a nondeterministic walk draws a random set of steps from a predefined set of sets and explores all possible extensions in parallel.…

It is known that the generating function associated with the enumeration of non-backtracking walks on finite graphs is a rational matrix-valued function of the parameter; such function is also closely related to graph-theoretical results…

We construct a generative network for Monte-Carlo sampling in lattice field theories and beyond, for which the learning of layerwise propagation is done and optimised independently on each layer. The architecture uses physics-informed…

Lattice paths effectively model phenomena in chemistry, physics and probability theory. Asymptotic enumeration of lattice paths is linked with entropy in the physical systems being modeled. Lattice paths restricted to different regions of…

We provide a new derivation of the well-known generating function counting the number of walks on a regular tree that start and end at the same vertex, and more generally, a generating function for the number of walks that end at a vertex a…

We consider the generating function of the algebraic area of lattice walks, evaluated at a root of unity, and its relation to the Hofstadter model. In particular, we obtain an expression for the generating function of the n-th moments of…

We analyze a random walk strategy on undirected regular networks involving power matrix functions of the type $L^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$ where $L$ indicates a `simple' Laplacian matrix. We refer such walks to as `Fractional Random Walks' with…

We refine necessary and sufficient conditions for the generating series of a weighted model of a quarter plane walk to be differentially algebraic. In addition, we give algorithms based on the theory of Mordell-Weil lattices, that, for each…

In queuing theory, it is usual to have some models with a "reset" of the queue. In terms of lattice paths, it is like having the possibility of jumping from any altitude to zero. These objects have the interesting feature that they do not…

We show that the half-perimeter generating functions for the number of Wicketed and Gated Ferrers diagrams is algebraic. Furthermore, the generating function of the Wicketed Ferrers diagrams is closely related to the generating function of…
