چکیده

Although the theoretical behavior of one-dimensional random walks in random environments is well understood, the numerical evaluation of various characteristics of such processes has received relatively little attention. This paper develops new theory and methodology for the computation of the drift of the random walk for various dependent random environments, including k-dependent and moving average environments.

A Comparison of Random Walks in Dependent Random Environments

Although the theoretical behavior of one-dimensional random walks in random environments is well understood, the actual evaluation of various characteristics of such processes has received relatively little attention. This paper develops new methodology for the exact computation of the drift in such models. Focusing on random walks in dependent random environments, including k-dependent and mov...

A PRELUDE TO THE THEORY OF RANDOM WALKS IN RANDOM ENVIRONMENTS

A random walk on a lattice is one of the most fundamental models in probability theory. When the random walk is inhomogenous and its inhomogeniety comes from an ergodic stationary process, the walk is called a random walk in a random environment (RWRE). The basic questions such as the law of large numbers (LLN), the central limit theorem (CLT), and the large deviation principle (LDP) are ...

Invariance Principle and recurrence for random walks in random environments with zero local drift

We prove the quenched Invariance Principle for random walks in random environments on Zd with zero local drift, subject to a transitivity hypothesis which is much weaker than the customary uniform ellipticity. We then obtain recurrence for d ≤ 2. The proofs are based on a representation of the system as an “uncountable union” of one-dimensional Markov maps, and on a powerful theorem by Schmidt ...

An almost sure invariance principle for random walks in a space-time random environment

We consider a discrete time random walk in a space-time i.i.d. random environment. We use a martingale approach to show that the walk is diffusive in almost every fixed environment. We improve on existing results by proving an invariance principle and considering environments with an L2 averaged drift. We also state an a.s. invariance principle for random walks in general random environments wh...

Central Limit Theorem and recurrence for random walks in bistochastic random environments

We prove the annealed Central Limit Theorem for random walks in bistochastic random environments on Zd with zero local drift. The proof is based on a “dynamicist’s interpretation” of the system, and requires a much weaker condition than the customary uniform ellipticity. Moreover, recurrence is derived for d ≤ 2.
