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:

    Novels as dull as dishwater, with the grease of random sentiments floating on top.
    Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    With four walk-in closets to walk in,
    Three bushes, two shrubs, and one tree,
    The suburbs are good for the children,
    But no place for grown-ups to be.
    Judith Viorst (b. 1935)
