We analyze its relevant statistical properties, like the transition probability, and show how an equilibrium state appears. Formulas for the first-passage time, high-water marks, and other extreme statistics are also derived; we consider counting problems naturally associated with the system. Finally we indicate feasible generalizations useful for interpreting different physical effects.10 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Physical Society, 2016Rutes aleatòries (Matemàtica)Processos estocàsticsProcessos de MarkovRandom walks (Mathematics)Stochastic processesMarkov processesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6642582016-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess27739786
