Power-law random walks
C. Vignat ; A. Plastino ;
Date 29 Jun 2006
Subject Statistical Mechanics
AbstractWe 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.
