Pólya showed in his 1921 paper that the generating function of the return probability for a two-dimensional random walk can be written in terms of an elliptic integral. In this paper we present a similar expression for a one-dimensional quantum walk.

The network model of electron orbits coupled by magnetic breakdown is extended to a two dimensional metal containing dislocations. It is shown that the network is still likely to be a valid representation, but the phase lengths of the arms are altered, and a very low dislocation density (about one per electron orbit) is enough to produce almost complete randomization. The Bloch-like quasi-particles that can travel in straight lines on a perfect network are now heavily scattered, and it is preferable to think of electrons performing a random walk on the arms of the network, although the justification for this procedure is somewhat doubtful. A simpler alternative to Falicov & Sievert’s method is presented for calculating the electrical conductivity of a random-phase network, and is extended to cases where randomness affects only some of the phases, as is believed to be the situation in real metals like zinc and magnesium.

A general two-dimensional random walk is considered with a barrier along the y-axis. Absorption probabilities are derived when the barrier is absorbing, and when it is semi-reflecting.

For the simple two-dimensional random walk on the vertices of a rectangular lattice, the asymptotic forms of several properties are well known, but their forms can be insufficiently accurate to describe the transient process. Inequalities with the correct asymptotic form are derived for six such properties. The rates of approach to the asymptotic form are derived. The accuracy of the bounds and some practical implications of the results are discussed.
