Résumé

We consider two random walkers starting at the same time t=0 from different points in space separated by a given distance R. We compute the average volume of the space visited by both walkers up to time t as a function of R and t and dimensionality of space d. For d<4, this volume, after proper renormalization, is shown to be expressed through a scaling function of a single variable R/t. We provide general integral formulas for scaling functions for arbitrary dimensionality d<4. In contrast, we show that no scaling function exists for higher dimensionalities d≥4.
