Random Walks and Trees

Zhan Shi (2011)

ESAIM: Proceedings

Similarity:

These notes provide an elementary and self-contained introduction to branching random walks. Section 1 gives a brief overview of Galton–Watson trees, whereas Section 2 presents the classical law of large numbers for branching random walks. These two short sections are not exactly indispensable, but they introduce the idea of using size-biased trees, thus giving motivations and an avant-goût to the main part, Section 3, where branching...

Einstein relation for biased random walk on Galton–Watson trees

Gerard Ben Arous, Yueyun Hu, Stefano Olla, Ofer Zeitouni (2013)

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

Similarity:

We prove the Einstein relation, relating the velocity under a small perturbation to the diffusivity in equilibrium, for certain biased random walks on Galton–Watson trees. This provides the first example where the Einstein relation is proved for motion in random media with arbitrarily slow traps.
