many vacancies problem as many single vacancy problems. propagator of the intruder in the presence of a single vacancy is given in terms of First-Passage Time distributions of the vacancy to the site ocupied by the intruder. results in the long time limit
Let Z j n denote the position of the j-th vacancy at time n,
j = 1, 2, . . . , M.
We want to compute the probability of finding the intruder at
position rn at time n conditioned to {Zj

δ(rn, r1
n + · · · + rM n )P(r1 n, . . . , rM n |{Zj n}) P(r1 n, . . . , rM n |{Zj n}) is the conditional probability that within the
time interval n the intruder moved to r1
n due to its interaction with
vacancy 1, to r2
n due to its interaction with vacancy 2, etc. In the lowest order in ρ0 the vacancies contributions are
independent and P(r1
n, . . . , rM n |{Zj n}) ≃ M

The problem reduces to M single vacancies, correct to O(ρ0).

χn = Sn − Sn−1 Sn is a fundamental characteristic property of a lattice discrete-time RW.

In general, for infinite systems (at least in one direction) Sn ∼ nα α is and indicator of the mixing of the lattice gas and depends on the effective dimensionality of the lattice.
◮ for larger α, a vacancy mostly moves to new sites ◮ for smaller α, a vacancy predominantly revisits already visited
sites In general α < 1 for systems in which the RW is recurrent, while α = 1 for non-recurrent RW’s.
We have χn ∼ nα−1 ⇒ σ2

The less efficient the mixing of the lattice gas is the faster the variance of the intruder’s displacement grows
