We consider the random walk of a particle along topologically linear channels under the influence of a uniform drift force. The channels are generated by the usual biased random walk procedure. The resulting mean-and mean-square displacements of a particle are discussed.
The classical gambler's ruin problem, i.e., a random walk along a line may be viewed q raph theoretically as a random walk along a path with the endpoints as absorbing states. This paper is an i0vestigation of the natural generalization of this problem to that of a particle walking randomly on a tre
