Lyons and Pemantle [11] give a precise recurrence/transience criterion. Our paper focuses on the almost sure asymptotic behaviours of a recurrent random walk $(X\\_n)$ in random environment on a regular tree, which is closely related to Mandelbrot [13]'s multiplicative cascade. We prove, under some general assumptions upon the distribution of the environment, the existence of a new exponent $\\nu\\in (0, {1\\over 2}]$ such that $\\max\\_{0\\le i \\le n} |X\\_i|$ behaves asymptotically like $n^{\\nu}$. The value of $\\nu$ is explicitly formulated in terms of the distribution of the environment.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-03-15T09:01:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K37", "60G50" ], "keywords": [ "recurrent random walk", "random environment", "regular tree", "subdiffusive behaviour", "sure asymptotic behaviours" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......3363H" } } }
