A Lower Bound on the Growth Exponent for Loop-Erased Random Walk in Two Dimensions

Gregory F. Lawler (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

The growth exponent α for loop-erased or Laplacian random walk on the integer lattice is defined by saying that the expected time to reach the sphere of radius n is of order nα. We prove that in two dimensions, the growth exponent is strictly greater than one. The proof uses a known estimate on the third moment of the escape probability and an improvement on the discrete Beurling projection theorem.

A model and application of binary random sequence with probabilities depending on history

Petr Volf, Tomáš Kouřim (2024)

Kybernetika

This paper presents a model of binary random sequence with probabilities depending on previous sequence values as well as on a set of covariates. Both these dependencies are expressed via the logistic regression model, such a choice enables an easy and reliable model parameters estimation. Further, a model with time-depending parameters is considered and method of solution proposed. The main objective is then the application dealing with both artificial and real data cases, illustrating the method...
