A geometric derivation of the linear Boltzmann equation for a particle interacting with a Gaussian random field, using a Fock space approach

Sébastien Breteaux (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this article the linear Boltzmann equation is derived for a particle interacting with a Gaussian random field, in the weak coupling limit, with renewal in time of the random field. The initial data can be chosen arbitrarily. The proof is geometric and involves coherent states and semi-classical calculus.

A note on quenched moderate deviations for Sinai’s random walk in random environment

Francis Comets, Serguei Popov (2004)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We consider the continuous time, one-dimensional random walk in random environment in Sinai’s regime. We show that the probability for the particle to be, at time t and in a typical environment, at a distance larger than t a ( 0 < a < 1 ) from its initial position, is exp { - Const · t a / [ ( 1 - a ) ln t ] ( 1 + o ( 1 ) ) } .

A note on quenched moderate deviations for Sinai's random walk in random environment

Francis Comets, Serguei Popov (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We consider the continuous time, one-dimensional random walk in random environment in Sinai's regime. We show that the probability for the particle to be, at time t and in a typical environment, at a distance larger than ta (0<a<1) from its initial position, is exp{-Const ⋅ ta/[(1 - a)lnt](1 + o(1))}.

Ageing in the parabolic Anderson model

Peter Mörters, Marcel Ortgiese, Nadia Sidorova (2011)

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

The parabolic Anderson model is the Cauchy problem for the heat equation with a random potential. We consider this model in a setting which is continuous in time and discrete in space, and focus on time-constant, independent and identically distributed potentials with polynomial tails at infinity. We are concerned with the long-term temporal dynamics of this system. Our main result is that the periods, in which the profile of the solutions remains nearly constant, are increasing linearly over time,...

Aging and quenched localization for one-dimensional random walks in random environment in the sub-ballistic regime

Nathanaël Enriquez, Christophe Sabot, Olivier Zindy (2009)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We consider transient one-dimensional random walks in a random environment with zero asymptotic speed. An aging phenomenon involving the generalized Arcsine law is proved using the localization of the walk at the foot of “valleys“ of height log t . In the quenched setting, we also sharply estimate the distribution of the walk at time t .

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

Firas Rassoul-Agha, Timo Seppäläinen (2009)

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

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 mean of the walk behaves subdiffusively.

An integral test for the transience of a brownian path with limited local time

Itai Benjamini, Nathanaël Berestycki (2011)

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

We study a one-dimensional brownian motion conditioned on a self-repelling behaviour. Given a nondecreasing positive function f(t), t≥0, consider the measures μt obtained by conditioning a brownian path so that Ls≤f(s), for all s≤t, where Ls is the local time spent at the origin by time s. It is shown that the measures μt are tight, and that any weak limit of μt as t→∞ is transient provided that t−3/2f(t) is integrable. We conjecture that this condition is sharp and present a number of open problems....
