Abstract: This paper conducts a numerical analysis of the behavior of the average value of the Maximum Local Time, Ln∗, in the Simple Random Walk on the square lattice. It has been established in the literature that the sequence ζn:=(logn)2Ln∗ converges to π. The author found numerical evidence that the average value of ζn (ζn¯) increases until a certain value of n, denoted as nc, after which it decreases and approaches π. Furthermore, estimates are presented for nc and ζnc¯.
