We analyse how simple local constraints in two dimensions lead a defect to exhibit robust, non-transient, and tunable, subdiffusion. We uncover a rich dynamical phenomenology realised in ice- and dimer-type models. On the microscopic scale…

We describe how to solve the problem of Taylor dispersion in the presence of absorbing boundaries using an exact stochastic formulation. In addition to providing a clear stochastic picture of Taylor dispersion, our method leads to…

We solve a model of sluggish stochastic motion in which a Brownian particle diffuses with a diffusion coefficient that decays algebraically with the distance to the origin, as $|x|^{-\alpha}$. Additionally, the particle resets with a…

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a glassy polymer widely used in biomedical engineering, namely in microfluidics applications. However, PDMS is known to interact with hydrophobic chemicals. This interaction is exacerbated at the scale of…

The paper addresses the single-file diffusion in the presence of an absorbing boundary. The emphasis is on an interplay between the hard-core interparticle interaction and the absorption process. The resulting dynamics exhibits several…

We present the model of a diffusion-absorption process in a system which consists of two media separated by a thin partially permeable membrane. The kind of diffusion as well as the parameters of the process may be different in both media.…

Consider a particle which is randomly accelerated by Gaussian white noise on the line segment $0<x<1$ and is absorbed as soon as it reaches $x=0$ or $x=1$. The mean absorption time $T(x,v)$, where $x$ and $v$ denote the initial position and…

The anomalous mean square fluctuations are shown to arise naturally from the ordinary diffusion equation interpreted scale invariantly in a formalism endowing real numbers with a nonarchimedean multiplicative structure. A variable $t$…

We derive general properties of anomalous diffusion and nonexponential relaxation from the theory of tempered \alpha-stable processes. Its most important application is to overcome the infinite-moment difficulty for the \alpha-stable random…

Expanding medium is very common in many different fields, such as biology and cosmology. It brings a nonnegligible influence on particle's diffusion, which is quite different from the effect of an external force field. The dynamic mechanism…

Anomalous transport in a circular comb is considered. The circular motion takes place for a fixed radius, while radii are continuously distributed along the circle. Two scenarios of the anomalous transport, related to the reflecting and…

We study the first passage time (FPT) problem in Levy type of anomalous diffusion. Using the recently formulated fractional Fokker-Planck equation, we obtain an analytic expression for the FPT distribution which, in the large passage time…

Several experiments on tagged molecules or particles in living systems suggest that they move anomalously slow - their mean squared displacement (MSD) increase slower than linearly with time. Leading models aimed at understanding these…

A model for anomalous transport of tracer particles diffusing in complex media in two dimensions is proposed. The model takes into account the characteristics of persistent motion that active bath transfer to the tracer, thus the model…
