Recurrence and transience of Rademacher series

Abstract: We introduce the notion of {�f a}-walk

S (n) = a_{1} X_{1} + d o t s + a_{n} X_{n}

, based on a sequence of positive numbers

and a Rademacher sequence

X_{1}, X_{2}, d o t s

. We study recurrence/transience (properly defined) of such walks for various sequences of

. In particular, we establish the classification in the cases where

,

, as well as in the case

a_{k} = l c e i l l o g_{g} a m m a k c e i l

or

a_{k} = l o g_{g} a m m a k

for

g a m m a > 1
