Random Walk on a Randomly Oriented Honeycomb Lattice

ABSTRACT

We study the recurrence behaviour of random walks on partially oriented
honeycomb lattices. The vertical edges are undirected while the orientation
of the horizontal edges is random:
depending on their distribution, we prove a.s.\ transience in some cases, and a.s.\
recurrence in other ones. The results extend those
obtained for the partially oriented square grid lattices (\hspace{-0.1pt}\cite{ref1}, \cite{ref2}).
%Due to the lack of independence of the vertical and horizontal motions of the random walk new techniques are developed to prove the results.

Keywords: Markov chain, random environment, random graph, honeycomb lattice, hexagonal lattice, recurrence criteria, directed graph
