Random walks with discrete time steps and discrete state spaces have widely been studied for several decades. We investigate such walks as games with “Diffusion Control”: a player (=controller) with certain intentions influences the random movements of the particle. In our models the controller decides only about the step size for a single particle. It turns out that this small amount of control is sufficient to cause the particle to stay in “premium regions” of the state space with surprisingly high probabilities.
