The steps of a one-dimensional random walk are positive and occur randomly in time at a fixed mean rate. The sizes of the steps are independent and the size of each step has the same given probability ...

The random walk theorem, first presented by French mathematician Louis Bachelier in 1900 and then expanded upon by economist Burton Malkiel in his 1973 book A Random Walk Down Wall Street, asserts ...

Researchers have uncovered deep connections among different types of random objects, illuminating hidden geometric structures. These are not the kinds of objects that concern Scott Sheffield.
