On large deviations for the range of a two-dimensional random walk

Serguei Popov, Quirin Vogel

Abstract

In this note, we compute the probability that a two-dimensional symmetric random walk visits more vertices than expected, for deviations on scales between the mean behavior and linear growth.

Key Result

Theorem 1

There exist $C_{\mathrm{up}}, C_{\mathrm{low}}>0$ such that for all $\theta_n\ge 1$ with $\theta_nr_n\le n$, we obtain that for all $n$
