Abstract: We study a continuous-time random walk on mathbbZd in an environment of random conductances taking values in (0,infty). For a static environment, we extend the quenched local limit theorem to the case of a general speed measure, given suitable ergodicity and moment conditions on the conductances and on the speed measure. Under stronger moment conditions, an annealed local limit theorem is also derived. Furthermore, an annealed local limit theorem is exhibited in the case of time-dependent conductances, under analogous moment and ergodicity assumptions. This dynamic local limit theorem is then applied to prove a scaling limit result for the space-time covariances in the Ginzburg-Landau ablaphi model. We also show that the associated Gibbs distribution scales to a Gaussian free field. These results apply to convex potentials for which the second derivative may be unbounded.


In this paper a (continuous-time) random walk is considered on \(\mathbb Z^d\) in an environment of random conductances taking values in \((0, \infty)\). Under certain condition of stationarity and ergodicity of the environment, quenched and annealed local limit theorems for the static random conductance model (RCM) are proved. Also a local limit theorem for the RCM under general speed measure is obtained. These theorems are applied to prove a scaling limit for the spacetime covariances in the Ginzburg-Landau \(\nabla \phi\) model. It is proved that the associated Gibbs distribution scales to a Gaussian free field.
