Variable survival exponents in history-dependent random walks: hard movable reflector
We review recent studies demonstrating a nonuniversal (continuously variable) survival exponent for history-dependent random walks, and analyze a new example, the hard movable partial reflector. These processes serve as a simplified models of infection in a medium with a history-dependent susceptibility, and for spreading in systems with an infinite number of absorbing configurations. The memor...
متن کاملSurvival probabilities in time-dependent random walks.
We analyze the dynamics of random walks in which the jumping probabilities are periodic time-dependent functions. In particular, we determine the survival probability of biased walkers who are drifted towards an absorbing boundary. The typical lifetime of the walkers is found to decrease with an increment in the oscillation amplitude of the jumping probabilities. We discuss the applicability of...
متن کاملFurther scaling exponents of random walks in random sceneries
Completing previous results, we construct, for every 1/2 6 s 6 1, explicit examples of nearest neighbour random walks on the nonnegative integer line such that s is the scaling exponent of the associated random walk in random scenery for square integrable i.i.d. sceneries. We use coupling techniques to compare the distributions of the local times of such random walks.
متن کاملFirst-Passage Exponents of Multiple Random Walks
We investigate first-passage statistics of an ensemble of N noninteracting random walks on a line. Starting from a configuration in which all particles are located in the positive half-line, we study Sn(t), the probability that the nth rightmost particle remains in the positive half-line up to time t. This quantity decays algebraically, Sn(t) ∼ tn , in the long-time limit. Interestingly, there ...
متن کاملHistory Dependent Quantum Random Walks as Quantum Lattice Gas Automata
Quantum Random Walks (QRW) were first defined as one-particle sectors of Quantum Lattice Gas Automata (QLGA). Recently, they have been generalized to include history dependence, either on previous coin (internal, i.e., spin or velocity) states or on previous position states. These models have the goal of studying the transition to classicality, or more generally, changes in the performance of q...
