We assume that these weights are independent, identically distributed and non-integrable random variables (with polynomial tail), and that d > 4. We obtain the quenched subdiffusive scaling limit of the model, the limit being the fractional kinetics process. We begin our proof by expressing the random walk as a time change of a random walk among random conductances. We then focus on proving that the time change converges, under the annealed measure, to a stable subordinator. This is achieved using previous results concerning the mixing properties of the environment viewed by the time-changed random walk.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-01-14T14:03:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K37", "60G52", "60F17", "82D30" ], "keywords": [ "scaling limit", "random traps", "bouchauds trap model", "nearest-neighbour random walk", "fractional kinetics process" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 40, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011AnIHP..47..813M" } } }
