Time transformation for random walks in the quenched trap model

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

Diffusion in the quenched trap model is investigated with an approach we call weak subordination breaking. We map the problem onto Brownian motion and show that the operational time is Sα=∑x=−∞∞(nx)α{\cal S}_α= \sum_{x=-\infty} ^\infty (n_x)^α where nxn_x is the visitation number at site xx . In the limit of zero temperature we recover the renormalization group (RG) solution found by Monthus. Our approach is an alternative to RG capable of dealing with any disorder strength.
