Limit laws of transient excited random walks on integers

Elena Kosygina, Thomas Mountford (2011)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider excited random walks (ERWs) on ℤ with a bounded number of i.i.d. cookies per site without the non-negativity assumption on the drifts induced by the cookies. Kosygina and Zerner [15] have shown that when the total expected drift per site, , is larger than 1 then ERW is transient to the right and, moreover, for >4 under the averaged measure it obeys the Central Limit Theorem. We show that when ∈(2, 4] the limiting behavior of an appropriately centered and scaled excited...

Large scale behavior of semiflexible heteropolymers

Francesco Caravenna, Giambattista Giacomin, Massimiliano Gubinelli (2010)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider a general discrete model for heterogeneous semiflexible polymer chains. Both the thermal noise and the inhomogeneous character of the chain (the ) are modeled in terms of random rotations. We focus on the regime, i.e., the analysis is performed for a given realization of the disorder. Semiflexible models differ substantially from random walks on short scales, but on large scales a brownian behavior emerges. By exploiting techniques from tensor analysis and non-commutative...
