Random Walk - Lattice Random Walk

Lattice Random Walk

A popular random walk model is that of a random walk on a regular lattice, where at each step the location jumps to another site according to some probability distribution. In a simple random walk, the location can only jump to neighboring sites of the lattice. In simple symmetric random walk on a locally finite lattice, the probabilities of the location jumping to each one of its immediate neighbours are the same. The best studied example is of random walk on the d-dimensional integer lattice (sometimes called the hypercubic lattice) .

Famous quotes containing the words random and/or walk:

    Assemble, first, all casual bits and scraps
    That may shake down into a world perhaps;
    People this world, by chance created so,
    With random persons whom you do not know—
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    And if I may not walk in th’ old ways and look on
    th’ old faces
    I wud sooner sleep.
    Charlotte Mew (1870–1928)
