We study a random walk on $mathbb{F}_p$ defined by $X_{n+1}=1/X_n+varepsilon_{n+1}$ if $X_n eq 0$, and $X_{n+1}=varepsilon_{n+1}$ if $X_n=0$, where $varepsilon_{n+1}$ are independent and identically distributed. This can be seen as a non-linear analogue of the Chung--Diaconis--Graham process. We show that the mixing time is of order $log p$, answering a question of Chatterjee and Diaconis.

We consider dynamical percolation on the $d$-dimensional discrete torus of side length $n$, $mathbb{Z}_n^d$, where each edge refreshes its status at rate $mu=mu_nle 1/2$ to be open with probability $p$. We study random walk on the torus, where the wa lker moves at rate $1/(2d)$ along each open edge. In earlier work of two of the authors with A. Stauffer, it was shown that in the subcritical case $p<p_c(mathbb{Z}^d)$, the (annealed) mixing time of the walk is $Theta(n^2/mu)$, and it was conjectured that in the supercritical case $p>p_c(mathbb{Z}^d)$, the mixing time is $Theta(n^2+1/mu)$; here the implied constants depend only on $d$ and $p$. We prove a quenched (and hence annealed) version of this conjecture up to a poly-logarithmic factor under the assumption $theta(p)>1/2$. Our proof is based on percolation results (e.g., the Grimmett-Marstrand Theorem) and an analysis of the volume-biased evolving set process; the key point is that typically, the evolving set has a substantial intersection with the giant percolation cluster at many times. This allows us to use precise isoperimetric properties of the cluster (due to G. Pete) to infer rapid growth of the evolving set, which in turn yields the upper bound on the mixing time.
Consider a system of coalescing random walks where each individual performs random walk over a finite graph G, or (more generally) evolves according to some reversible Markov chain generator Q. Let C be the first time at which all walkers have coales ced into a single cluster. C is closely related to the consensus time of the voter model for this G or Q. We prove that the expected value of C is at most a constant multiple of the largest hitting time of an element in the state space. This solves a problem posed by Aldous and Fill and gives sharp bounds in many examples, including all vertex-transitive graphs. We also obtain results on the expected time until only k>1 clusters remain. Our proof tools include a new exponential inequality for the meeting time of a reversible Markov chain and a deterministic trajectory, which we believe to be of independent interest.
We define a correlated random walk (CRW) induced from the time evolution matrix (the Grover matrix) of the Grover walk on a graph $G$, and present a formula for the characteristic polynomial of the transition probability matrix of this CRW by using a determinant expression for the generalized weighted zeta function of $G$. As applications, we give the spectrum of the transition probability matrices for the CRWs induced from the Grover matrices of regular graphs and semiregular bipartite graphs. Furthermore, we consider another type of the CRW on a graph.
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 and annealed bounds on the tails of the survival t ime in the general $d$-dimensional case. We then consider a simplified one-dimensional model (where transition probabilities and obstacles are independent and the RWRE only moves to neighbour sites), and obtain finer results for the tail of the survival time. In addition, we study also the mixed probability measures (quenched with respect to the obstacles and annealed with respect to the transition probabilities and vice-versa) and give results for tails of the survival time with respect to these probability measures. Further, we apply the same methods to obtain bounds for the tails of hitting times of Branching Random Walks in Random Environment (BRWRE).
We study the evolution of a random walker on a conservative dynamic random environment composed of independent particles performing simple symmetric random walks, generalizing results of [16] to higher dimensions and more general transition kernels w ithout the assumption of uniform ellipticity or nearest-neighbour jumps. Specifically, we obtain a strong law of large numbers, a functional central limit theorem and large deviation estimates for the position of the random walker under the annealed law in a high density regime. The main obstacle is the intrinsic lack of monotonicity in higher-dimensional, non-nearest neighbour settings. Here we develop more general renormalization and renewal schemes that allow us to overcome this issue. As a second application of our methods, we provide an alternative proof of the ballistic behaviour of the front of (the discrete-time version of) the infection model introduced in [23].
