A criterion for transience of multidimensional branching random walk in random environment

چکیده

We develop a criterion for transience for a general model of branching Markov chains. In the case of multi-dimensional branching random walk in random environment (BRWRE) this criterion becomes explicit. In particular, we show that Condition L of Comets and Popov [3] is necessary and sufficient for transience as conjectured. Furthermore, the criterion applies to two important classes of branching random walks and implies that the critical branching random walk is transient resp. dies out locally.

Branching random walks in random environment on Cayley graphs

We review some recent results concerning recurrence and transience for branching random walks in random environment on ddimensional lattices and on trees. We obtain some generalizations of these results for the case when the branching random walk in random environment takes place on arbitrary infinite connected Cayley graph.

On multidimensional branching random walks in random environment

We study branching random walks in random i.i.d. environment in Zd, d ≥ 1. For this model, the population size cannot decrease, and a natural definition of recurrence is introduced. We prove a dichotomy for recurrence/transience, depending only on the support of the environmental law. We give sufficient conditions for recurrence and for transience. In the recurrent case, we study the asymptotic...

Recurrence and transience of a multi-excited random walk on a regular tree

We study a model of multi-excited random walk on a regular tree which generalizes the models of the once excited random walk and the digging random walk introduced by Volkov (2003). We show the existence of a phase transition and provide a criterion for the recurrence/transience property of the walk. In particular, we prove that the asymptotic behaviour of the walk depends on the order of the e...

Almost sure functional central limit theorem for ballistic random walk in random environment

We consider a multidimensional random walk in a product random environment with bounded steps, transience in some spatial direction, and high enough moments on the regeneration time. We prove an invariance principle, or functional central limit theorem, under almost every environment for the diffusively scaled centered walk. The main point behind the invariance principle is that the quenched me...

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.
