Maximal Displacement for Bridges of Random Walks in a Random Environment (2009)

Gantert, Nina, Peterson, Jonathon

It is well known that the distribution of simple random walks on $\bf{Z}$ conditioned on returning to the origin after $2n$ steps does not depend on $p= P(S_1 = 1)$, the probability of moving to the...

Survival and Growth of a Branching Random Walk in Random Environment (2009)

Bartsch, Christian, Gantert, Nina, Kochler, Michael

We consider a particular Branching Random Walk in Random Environment (BRWRE) on $N_0$ started with one particle at the origin. Particles reproduce according to an offspring distribution (which...

Gantert, Nina; University Of Munster; Gantert@math.uni-muenster.de, Popov, Serguei; Universidade De São Paulo; Popov@ime.usp.br, Vachkovskaia, Marina; Universidade De Campinas; Marinav@ime.unicamp.br

We consider a Random Walk in Random Environment (RWRE) moving in an i.i.d. random field of obstacles. When the particle hits an obstacle, it disappears with a positive probability. We obtain quenched...

Survival of branching random walks in random environment (2008)

Gantert, Nina, Müller, Sebastian, Popov, Serguei, Vachkovskaia, Marina

We study survival of nearest-neighbour branching random walks in random environment (BRWRE) on $\mathbb{Z}$. A priori there are three different regimes of survival: global survival, local survival,...
