The Scaling Limit of Senile Reinforced Random Walk
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract We prove that the scaling limit of nearest-neighbour senile reinforced random walk is Brownian Motion when the time T spent on the first edge has finite mean. We show that under suitable conditions, when T has heavy tails the scaling limit is the so-called fractional kinetics process, a random time-change of Brownian motion. The proof uses the standard tools of time-change and invariance principles for additive functionals of Markov chains.

Central Limit Theorem in Multitype Branching Random Walk
A discrete time multitype (p-type) branching random walk on the real line R is considered. The positions of the j-type individuals in the n-th generation form a point process. The asymptotic behavior of these point processes, when the generation size tends to infinity, is studied. The central limit theorem is proved.

We give an alternative proof of the existence of the scaling limit of loop-erased random walk which does not use Löwner’s differential equation.
متن کاملLoop-Erased Random Walk and Poisson Kernel on Planar Graphs
Lawler, Schramm and Werner showed that the scaling limit of the loop-erased random walk on Z2 is SLE2. We consider scaling limits of the loop-erasure of random walks on other planar graphs (graphs embedded into C so that edges do not cross one another). We show that if the scaling limit of the random walk is planar Brownian motion, then the scaling limit of its loop-erasure is SLE2. Our main co...
متن کاملThe scaling limit of loop-erased random walk in three dimensions
Loop-erased random walk is a model for a random simple (i.e. non-selfintersecting) path created by taking a random walk and, whenever it hits itself, deleting the resulting loop and continuing. We will explain why this model is interesting and why scaling limits are interesting, and then go on to describe the proof (that the limit exists), as time will permit.

In this paper, the author investigates the scaling limit of a partial difference equation on the d dimensional integer lattice Zd, corresponding to a translation invariant random walk perturbed by a random vector field. In the case when the translation invariant walk scales to a Cauchy process he proves convergence to an effective equation on Rd. The effective equation corresponds to a Cauchy p...
