Universal exploration dynamics of random walks

Random walks are usually characterized by the spatial territory they cover, described by the number of sites visited at a given time. Here the authors propose an approach that accounts the time between visits to distinct sites, for improved analysis of the exploration process for general random walk...

Description
Summary:Random walks are usually characterized by the spatial territory they cover, described by the number of sites visited at a given time. Here the authors propose an approach that accounts the time between visits to distinct sites, for improved analysis of the exploration process for general random walks, including the case of anomalous diffusion in disordered media.
