Title
Random walks on lattices with a random distribution of perfect traps
Author
Abstract
We made an accurate numerical determination of the average number of steps until trapping 〈n〉 of a particle performing a random walk on a square resp. cubic lattice containing traps. We assume a random distribution of perfect trap centers with densityq. Within a large range ofq-values we observe aq-dependence of the form 〈n〉=−q−α lnq with α∼0.817, resp. ∼0.689. The expression coincides with expansion results aroundq=1 and is compatible with expansion results aroundq=0.
