Power-law random walks | C. Vignat

29 Jun 2006 | Subject: | Statistical Mechanics | Abstract: | We present some new results about the distribution of a random walk whose independent steps follow a $q-$Gaussian distribution with exponent $frac{1}{1-q}; q in mathbb{R}$. In the case $q>1$ we show that a stochastic representation of the point reached after $n$ steps of the walk can be expressed explicitly for all $n$. In the case $q<1,$ we show that the random walk can be interpreted as a projection of an isotropic random walk, i.e. a random walk with fixed length steps and uniformly distributed directions. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0606768 | Other source: | [GID 851717] pmid17279894 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
