Abstract
We present the autocorrelation function (t) and the mean number of visited sites S(t) for continuous-time random walks on a new hierarchical model proposed by Knapp. With broad waiting-time distributions ψ(t)∼ we find S(t)∼ (subordination) and S(t)∼1/(t) (compact exploration) for small temperatures, where γ characterizes the energetic disorder. These results parallel our findings for random walks on ultrametric spaces and on fractals.
