A Semi-deterministic random walk with resetting

We consider a discrete-time random walk $(x_t)$ which at random times is reset to the starting position and performs a deterministic motion between them. We show that the quantity $\Pr \Big( x_{ t+1}= n+1 |x_{t}=n \Big), n\to \infty$ determines if the system is averse, neutral or inclined towards re...

Sumario:We consider a discrete-time random walk $(x_t)$ which at random times is reset to the starting position and performs a deterministic motion between them. We show that the quantity $\Pr \Big( x_{ t+1}= n+1 |x_{t}=n \Big), n\to \infty$ determines if the system is averse, neutral or inclined towards resetting. It also classifica the stationary distribution. Double barrier probabilities, first passage times and the distribution of the escape time from intervals are determined.
