Random Walk Among Mobile/Immobile Traps: A Short Review

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: There have been extensive studies of a random walk among a field of immobile traps (or obstacles), where one is interested in the probability of survival as well as the law of the random walk conditioned on its survival up to time t. In contrast, very little is known when the traps are mobile. We will briefly review the literature on the trapping problem with immobile traps, and then review some recent results on a model with mobile traps, where the traps are represented by a Poisson system of independent random walks on mathbbZd. Some open questions will be given at the end.
