Local sub-Gaussian estimates on graphs: The strongly recurrent case.
We consider a long-range version of self-avoiding walk in dimension d > 2(α ∧ 2), where d denotes dimension and α the power-law decay exponent of the coupling function. Under appropriate scaling we prove convergence to brownian motion for α ≥ 2, and to α-stable Lévy motion for α < 2. This complements results by Slade [J. Phys. A21 (1988) L417–L420], who proves convergence to brownian motion for nearest-neighbor self-avoiding walk in high dimension.
