The integer points (sites) of the real line are marked by the positions of a standard random walk. We say that the set of marked sites is weakly, moderately or strongly sparse depending on whether the jumps of the standard random walk are supported by a bounded set, have finite or infinite mean, respectively. Focussing on the case of strong sparsity we consider a nearest neighbor random walk on the set of integers having jumps $pm 1$ with probability $1/2$ at every nonmarked site, whereas a random drift is imposed at every marked site. We prove new distributional limit theorems for the so defined random walk in a strongly sparse random environment, thereby complementing results obtained recently in Buraczewski et al. (2018+) for the case of moderate sparsity and in Matzavinos et al. (2016) for the case of weak sparsity. While the random walk in a strongly sparse random environment exhibits either the diffusive scaling inherent to a simple symmetric random walk or a wide range of subdiffusive scalings, the corresponding limit distributions are non-stable.

We consider branching random walks in $d$-dimensional integer lattice with time-space i.i.d. offspring distributions. This model is known to exhibit a phase transition: If $d ge 3$ and the environment is not too random, then, the total population gro ws as fast as its expectation with strictly positive probability. If,on the other hand, $d le 2$, or the environment is ``random enough, then the total population grows strictly slower than its expectation almost surely. We show the equivalence between the slow population growth and a natural localization property in terms of replica overlap. We also prove a certain stronger localization property, whenever the total population grows strictly slower than its expectation almost surely.
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, and strong local survival. We show that local and st rong local survival regimes coincide for BRWRE and that they can be characterized with the spectral radius of the first moment matrix of the process. These results are generalizations of the classification of BRWRE in recurrent and transient regimes. Our main result is a characterization of global survival that is given in terms of Lyapunov exponents of an infinite product of i.i.d. $2times 2$ random matrices.
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 right. Moreover, conditioned on ${S_{2n}=0}$ the max imal displacement $max_{kleq 2n} |S_k|$ converges in distribution when scaled by $sqrt{n}$ (diffusive scaling). We consider the analogous problem for transient random walks in random environments on $bf{Z}$. We show that under the quenched law $P_omega$ (conditioned on the environment $omega$), the maximal displacement of the random walk when conditioned to return to the origin at time $2n$ is no longer necessarily of the order $sqrt{n}$. If the environment is nestling (both positive and negative local drifts exist) then the maximal displacement conditioned on returning to the origin at time $2n$ is of order $n^{kappa/(kappa+1)}$, where the constant $kappa>0$ depends on the law on environment. On the other hand, if the environment is marginally nestling or non-nestling (only non-negative local drifts) then the maximal displacement conditioned on returning to the origin at time $2n$ is at least $n^{1-varepsilon}$ and at most $n/(ln n)^{2-varepsilon}$ for any $varepsilon>0$. As a consequence of our proofs, we obtain precise rates of decay for $P_omega(X_{2n}=0)$. In particular, for certain non-nestling environments we show that $P_omega(X_{2n}=0) = exp{-Cn -Cn/(ln n)^2 + o(n/(ln n)^2) }$ with explicit constants $C,C>0$.

We consider branching random walks in $d$-dimensional integer lattice with time-space i.i.d. offspring distributions. When $d ge 3$ and the fluctuation of the environment is well moderated by the random walk, we prove a central limit theorem for the density of the population, together with upper bounds for the density of the most populated site and the replica overlap. We also discuss the phase transition of this model in connection with directed polymers in random environment.

We consider random walks in a random environment that is given by i.i.d. Dirichlet distributions at each vertex of Z^d or, equivalently, oriented edge reinforced random walks on Z^d. The parameters of the distribution are a 2d-uplet of positive real numbers indexed by the unit vectors of Z^d. We prove that, as soon as these weights are nonsymmetric, the random walk in this random environment is transient in a direction with positive probability. In dimension 2, this result can be strenghened to an almost sure directional transience thanks to the 0-1 law from [ZM01]. Our proof relies on the property of stability of Dirichlet environment by time reversal proved in [Sa09]. In a first part of this paper, we also give a probabilistic proof of this property as an alternative to the change of variable computation used in that article.
