Regularity of biased 1D random walks in random environment

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study the asymptotic properties of nearest-neighbor random walks in 1d random environment under the influence of an external field of intensity lambdainmathbbR. For ergodic shift-invariant environments, we show that the limiting velocity v(lambda) is always increasing and that it is everywhere analytic except at most in two points lambda− and lambda+. When lambda− and lambda+ are distinct, v(lambda) might fail to be continuous. We refine the assumptions in cite{Z} for having a recentered CLT with diffusivity sigma2(lambda) and give explicit conditions for sigma2(lambda) to be analytic. For the random conductance model we show that, in contrast with the deterministic case, sigma2(lambda) is not monotone on the positive (resp.~negative) half-line and that it is not differentiable at lambda=0. For this model we also prove the Einstein Relation, both in discrete and continuous time, extending the result of cite{LD16}.
