On some generalized reinforced random walk on integers

Olivier Raimond, Universite Paris Ouest Nanterre
Bruno Schapira, Universite Paris-Sud


Abstract
We consider Reinforced Random Walks where transitions probabilities are a function of the proportions of times the walk has traversed an edge. We give conditions for recurrence or transience. A phase transition is observed, similar to Pemantle [7] on trees
