A subdiffusive behaviour of recurrent random walk in random environment on a regular tree
Résumé
We are interested in the random walk in random environment on an infinite tree. Lyons and Pemantle [11] give a precise recurrence/transience criterion. Our paper focuses on the almost sure asymptotic behaviours of a recurrent random walk $(X_n)$ in random environment on a regular tree, which is closely related to Mandelbrot [13]'s multiplicative cascade. We prove, under some general assumptions upon the distribution of the environment, the existence of a new exponent $\nu\in (0, {1\over 2}]$ such that $\max_{0\le i \le n} |X_i|$ behaves asymptotically like $n^{\nu}$. The value of $\nu$ is explicitly formulated in terms of the distribution of the environment.
