We establish the renewal theorem for the Markov chain of "the environment viewed from the particle" in both annealed probability and quenched probability, which generalize partially the results of Kesten (1977) and Lalley (1986) for the nearest random walk in random environment on Z, respectively. Our method is based on (L, 1)-RWRE formulated in Hong and Wang the intrinsic branching structure within the (2013).展开更多

The environments are represented by a stationary and ergodic sequence ξ = (ξ 0, ξ 1,…) of random variables. Given an environment ξ, the process is a non-homogenous Galton-Watson process, whose particles in n-th generation have a life length distribution G(ξ n ) on ?+, and reproduce independently new particles according to a probability law p(ξ n ) on ?. Let Z(t) be the number of particles alive at time t. We first find a characterization of the conditional probability generating function of Z(t) (given the environment ξ) via a functional equation, and obtain a criterion for almost certain extinction of the process by comparing it with an embedded Galton-Watson process. We then get expressions of the conditional mean E ξ Z(t) and the global mean EZ(t), and show their exponential growth rates by studying a renewal equation in random environments.展开更多

The random environment is stationary and ergodic. By the constructed enlarged random environment which was first introduced by Goldsheid (2008), we obtain the large deviations conditioned on the environment (in the quenched case) for the hitting times of the random walk.展开更多
