Consider non-homogeneous zero-drift random walks in Rd, d≥2, with the asymptotic increment covariance matrix σ2(u) satisfying u⊤σ2(u)u=U and trσ2(u)=V in all in directions u∈Sd−1 for some positive constants U<V. In this paper we establish weak convergence of the radial component of the walk to a Bessel process with dimension V/U. This can be viewed as an extension of an invariance principle of Lamperti.

We prove an invariance principle for a class of zero-drift spatially non-homogeneous random walks in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which may be recurrent in any dimension. The limit $\mathcal{X}$ is an ellipticExpand
