Random walk attracted by percolation clusters

preprint2005arXivOpen access

Abstract

Starting with a percolation model in Zd\Z^d in the subcritical regime, we consider a random walk described as follows: the probability of transition from xx to yy is proportional to some function ff of the size of the cluster of yy. This function is supposed to be increasing, so that the random walk is attracted by bigger clusters. For f(t)=eβtf(t)=e^{βt} we prove that there is a phase transition in ββ, i.e., the random walk is subdiffusive for large ββ and is diffusive for small ββ.
