چکیده

Abstract. In this article we continue the study of the quenched distributions of transient, one-dimensional random walks in a random environment. In a previous article we showed that while the quenched distributions of the hitting times do not converge to any deterministic distribution, they do have a weak weak limit in the sense that viewed as random elements of the space of probability measures they converge in distribution to a certain random probability measure (we refer to this as a weak weak limit because it is a weak limit in the weak topology). Here, we improve this result to the path-valued process of hitting times. As a consequence, we are able to also prove a weak weak quenched limit theorem for the path of the random walk itself.

Weak Quenched Limiting Distributions for Transient One-dimensional Random Walk in a Random Environment

We consider a one-dimensional, transient random walk in a random i.i.d. environment. The asymptotic behaviour of such random walk depends to a large extent on a crucial parameter κ > 0 that determines the fluctuations of the process. When 0 < κ < 2, the averaged distributions of the hitting times of the random walk converge to a κ-stable distribution. However, it was shown recently that in this...

Limit Theorems for Random Walks on a Strip in Subdiffusive Regime

We study the asymptotic behaviour of occupation times of a transient random walk in quenched random environment on a strip in a sub-diffusive regime. The asymptotic behaviour of hitting times, which is a more traditional object of study, is the exactly same. As a particular case, we solve a long standing problem of describing the asymptotic behaviour of a random walk with bounded jumps on a one...

Quenched Limits for Transient, Zero Speed One-Dimensional Random Walk in Random Environment

We consider a nearest-neighbor, one dimensional random walk {Xn}n≥0 in a random i.i.d. environment, in the regime where the walk is transient but with zero speed, so thatXn is of order n for some s < 1. Under the quenched law (i.e., conditioned on the environment), we show that no limit laws are possible: there exist sequences {nk} and {xk} depending on the environment only, such that Xnk − xk ...

One-dimensional discrete-time quantum walks on random environments

We consider discrete-time nearest-neighbor quantum walks on random environments in one dimension. Using the method based on a path counting, we present both quenched and annealed weak limit theorems for the quantum walk.
