A particle executes a simple unrestricted random walk on the line: a step to the right of length 1 occurs with probability 0.66 and a step to the left of length 1 occurs with probability 0.34. Initially the particle is at the origin.
Calculate the probability that the particle will ever return to the origin.

b) A particle executes an unrestricted random walk on the line starting at the origin. The ith step, Zi, has the following distribution: (i) Find the mean and variance of Z,, and hence find the mean and [41 15 12] variance of X the position of the particle after n steps (ii) Find the probability distribution of X, and state the range of X Explain all the steps in your derivation of the distribution (iii) Calculate the following probabilities in...
Topic 3 (About CLT and Bayes'Theorem: 10 marks] A particle moves along the line in a random walk. That is, the particle starts at the origin (position 0) and moves either 2 units to the right or I unit to the left in independent steps. If the particle moves to the right with probability 2/3, its movement at the ih step is a random variable X, with distribution P(x+2)-2/3 P(X,-)=13 The position of the particle after 400 steps is the...
4. (Dobrow 2.5) Consider a random walk on {0,...,k}, which moves left and right with respective probabilities q and p. If the walk is at 0 it transitions to 1 on the next step. If the walk is at k it transitions to k−1 on the next step. This is called random walk with reflecting boundaries. Assume that k = 3, q = 1/4, p = 3/4, and the initial distribution is uniform. (a) Find the transition matrix. (b) Find...
Problem 3 Consider a random walk on the integers. Suppose we start from 0, and at each step, we either go left or right with probability 1/2, ie, Xo--0, and Xt+1 Xt+Zt, where Zt-1 with probability 1/2, and Zt1 with probability 1/2. What is the probability distribution of XT? What is E(X) and Var(XT)? Problem 3 Consider a random walk on the integers. Suppose we start from 0, and at each step, we either go left or right with probability...
Suppose that a particle starts at the origin of the real line and moves along the line in jumps of one unit. For each jump, the probability is p(0≤p≤1) that the particle will jump one unit to the left and the probability is 1−p that the particle will jump one unit to the right. Find the expected value of the position of the particle after n jumps.
python / visual studio Problem 1: Random Walk A random walk is a stochastic process. A stochastic process is a series of values that are not determined functionally, but probabilistically. The random walk is supposed to describe an inebriated person who, starting from the bar, intends to walk home, but because of intoxication instead randomly takes single steps either forward or backward, left or right. The person has no memory of any steps taken, so theoretically, the person shouldn't move...
