Random Walks Conditioned to Stay in Weyl Chambers of Type C and D
نویسنده
چکیده
We construct the conditional versions of a multidimensional random walk given that it does not leave the Weyl chambers of type C and of type D, respectively, in terms of a Doob h-transform. Furthermore, we prove functional limit theorems for the rescaled random walks. This is an extension of recent work by Eichelsbacher and König who studied the analogous conditioning for the Weyl chamber of type A. Our proof follows recent work by Denisov and Wachtel who used martingale properties and a strong approximation of random walks by Brownian motion. Therefore, we are able to keep minimal moment assumptions. Finally, we present an alternate function that is amenable to an h-transform in the Weyl chamber of type C.

Ordered random walks with heavy tails ∗
This paper continues our previous work [4] where we have constructed a k-dimensional random walk conditioned to stay in the Weyl chamber of type A. The construction was done under the assumption that the original random walk has k− 1 moments. In this note we continue the study of killed random walks in the Weyl chamber, and assume that the tail of increments is regularly varying of index α < k−...
متن کاملRandom Walks in Weyl Chambers and the Decomposition of Tensor Powers
We consider a class of random walks on a lattice, introduced by Gessel and Zeilberger, for which the reflection principle can be used to count the number of K-step walks between two points which stay within a chamber of a Weyl group. We prove three independent results about such "reflectable walks": first, a classification of all such walks; second, many determinant formulas for walk numbers an...
متن کاملUpper and Lower Space-time Envelopes for Oscillating Random Walks Conditioned to Stay Positive
We provide integral tests for functions to be upper and lower space time envelopes for random walks conditioned to stay positive. As a result we deduce a `Hartman-Winter' Law of the Iterated Logarithm for random walks conditioned to stay positive under a third moment assumption. We also show that under a second moment assumption the conditioned random walk grows faster than n 1=2 (log n) ?(1+")...
متن کاملConvex hulls of random walks, hyperplane arrangements, and Weyl chambers
We give an explicit formula for the probability that the convex hull of an n-step random walk in R does not contain the origin, under the assumption that the distribution of increments of the walk is centrally symmetric and puts no mass on affine hyperplanes. This extends the formula by Sparre Andersen (Skand Aktuarietidskr 32:27–36, 1949) for the probability that such random walk in dimension ...
متن کاملLaw of the iterated logarithm for oscillating random walks conditioned to stay non-negative
We show that under a 3+ δ moment condition (where δ > 0) there exists a ‘Hartman-Winter’ Law of the Iterated Logarithm for random walks conditioned to stay non-negative. We also show that under a second moment assumption the conditioned random walk eventually grows faster than n (logn) for any ε > 0 and yet slower than n (logn) . The results are proved using three key facts about conditioned ra...
