For(Xn)n≥0, a C(x)-biased random walk on the tree, we show that (1) when λ≠ m, α > 0,(Xn)n≥0 is transient/recurrent according to whether λ < m or λ > m, respectively;(2) when λ = m, 0 < α < 1,(Xn)n≥ 0 is transient/recurrent according to whether A < 0 or A > 0, respectively.In particular, if P(N = 1) = 1, the C(x)-biased random walk is Lamperti’s random walk on the nonnegative integers(see Lamperti(1960)).展开更多
