Abstract:

Random walk in random environment is a model for motion through a disordered medium. Traditionally this is studied with fairly strong non-degeneracy conditions on the environment. I'll describe some results in which those conditions are relaxed, and various transitions are forbidden at random, which leads naturally to questions about percolation on random directed graphs.
