Abstract

The random walk of a particle on a directed Bethe lattice of constant coordinanceZ is examined in the case of random hopping rates. As a result, the higher the coordinance, the narrower the regions of anomalous drift and diffusion. The annealed and quenched mean square dispersions are calculated in all dynamical phases. In opposition to the one-dimensional (Z=2) case, the annealed and quenched mean quadratic dispersions are shown to be identical in all phases.
