Abstract

We derive results for the Bouchaud trap model in the hypercube at low temperature. This is a continuous-time simple symmetric random walk on hypercube that waits a exponetial time with a random rate with distribution in the domain of attraction of a stable law of exponent lower than 1. The results arise to a scaling limit called k-process, roughly, a Markov process in a denumerable state space which enters finite sets with uniform distribution. (AU)
