Recurrence conjecture for the one-dimensional centre of mass

About 8 years old · traced to

Let XX be a one-dimensional random-walk increment with zero mean, and let GnG_n denote the centre of mass at time nn. Recurrence conjecture. Suppose d=1d=1. If

E⁡X=0,\operatorname{\mathbb{E}}X=0,

then GnG_n is recurrent. This is proposed as the one-dimensional zero-drift case of the centre-of-mass problem; no resolution is given in the source.
