Diffusion in an evolving environment is studied by continuos-time Monte Carlo simulations. Diffusion is modelled by continuos-time random walkers on a lattice, in a dynamic environment provided by bubbles between two one-dimensional…

The hindered diffusion model is introduced. It is a continuum model giving the dynamics of a conserved density. Similar to the spin-facilitated models, the kinetics are hindered by a fluctuating diffusion coefficient that decreases as the…
Exploring the free-energy landscape along reaction coordinates or system parameters $\lambda$ is central to many studies of high-dimensional model systems in physics, e.g. large molecules or spin glasses. In simulations this usually…
The diffusion equation is the primary tool to study the movement dynamics of a free Brownian particle, but when spatial heterogeneities in the form of permeable interfaces are present, no fundamental equation has been derived. Here we…
We study a process of anomalous diffusion, based on intermittent velocity fluctuations, and we show that its scaling depends on whether we observe the motion of many independent trajectories or that of a Liouville-like equation driven…

Predicting river flow in places without streamflow records is challenging because basins respond differently to climate, terrain, vegetation, and soils. Traditional basin attributes describe some of these differences, but they cannot fully…

We propose to use spin hydrodynamics, a two-fluid model of spin propagation, as a generalization of the diffusion equation. We show that in the dense limit spin hydrodynamics reduces to Fick's law and the diffusion equation. In the opposite…
Over the past decade the study of fluidic droplets bouncing and skipping (or ``walking'') on a vibrating fluid bath has gone from an interesting experiment to a vibrant research field. The field exhibits challenging fluids problems,…
Continuous-time random walks combining diffusive scattering and ballistic propagation on lattices model a class of L\'evy walks. The assumption that transitions in the scattering phase occur with exponentially-distributed waiting times…
