Title: Three problems on the random walk in Zd. (In English)
Source: Stud. Sci. Math. Hung. 26, No.2/3, 309-320 (1991).
Review: A simple symmetric random walk in Zd is considered. The following three functionals are studied and their asymptotic behaviour is analysed:
Rd(n): Largest integer for which there exists a random variable u such that all the points in the ball of radius Rd(n) centered at u are visited by time n (d \geq 3).
\nud(n): Time needed, after time n, to visit a point not previously visited.
fn: Cardinality of the set of ``favourite values'', i.e. sites most often visited by time n.
