Speed Function for Biased Random Walks with Traps

Volker Betz, Matthias Meiners, Ivana Tomic

Published 2022-09-01Version 1

We consider a biased nearest-neighbor random walk on $\Z$ which at each step is trapped for some random time with random, site-dependent mean. We derive a simple formula for the speed function in terms of the model parameters.
