We study the continuum version of Sinai's problem of a random walker i
n a random force field in one dimension. A method of stochastic repres
entation is used to represent various probability distributions in thi
s problem (mean probability density function and first passage time di
stributions). This method reproduces already known rigorous results an
d also confirms directly some recent results derived using approximati
on schemes. We demonstrate clearly, in the Sinai scaling regime, that
the disorder dominates the problem and that the thermal distributions
tend to zero-one laws.
