Random walks serve as fundamental models in the study of stochastic processes, simulating phenomena ranging from molecular diffusion to queuing networks and financial systems. Their inherent ...

We consider nonintersecting random walks satisfying the condition that the increments have a finite moment generating function. We prove that in a certain limiting regime where the number of walks and ...

The random walk theorem, first presented by French mathematician Louis Bachelier in 1900 and then expanded upon by economist Burton Malkiel in his 1973 book A Random Walk Down Wall Street, asserts ...

In this paper, we introduce a new simple but powerful general technique for the study of edge- and vertex-reinforced processes with super-linear reinforcement, based on the use of order statistics for ...

Random walk hypothesis suggests stock market movements are unpredictable, impacting active trading. This theory supports long-term investment strategies, like buy-and-hold, over short-term speculation ...

The last time I looked at random walks, I used them to calculate the value of Pi for Pi Day. But what is a random walk, really? A mathematician will tell you that it's a stochastic process—a path ...
