Limit theorem for random walk in weakly dependent random scenery
Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques, Tome 46 (2010) no. 4, pp. 1178-1194.

Soit S=(Sk)k≥0 une marche aléatoire sur ℤ et ξ=(ξi)i∈ℤ une suite stationnaire de variables aléatoires centrées, indépendante de S. Nous considérons une marche aléatoire en scène aléatoire définie par la suite de variables aléatoires (Un)n≥0=(∑k=0nξSk)n≥0. Sous une hypothèse de dépendance faible portant sur la scène ξ, nous montrons un théorème de la limite centrale fonctionnel généralisant le théorème de Kesten et Spitzer [Z. Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 50 (1979) 5-25].

Let S=(Sk)k≥0 be a random walk on ℤ and ξ=(ξi)i∈ℤ a stationary random sequence of centered random variables, independent of S. We consider a random walk in random scenery that is the sequence of random variables (Un)n≥0, where Un=∑k=0nξSk, n∈ℕ. Under a weak dependence assumption on the scenery ξ we prove a functional limit theorem generalizing Kesten and Spitzer's [Z. Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 50 (1979) 5-25] theorem.
