Consider a sequence of masses $m_0,m_1,...$ arriving uniformly at random at some points $u_0,u_1,...$ on the unit circle $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ (or on $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$, in the discrete version). Upon arrival, each mass undergoes a…

We combine the processes of resetting and first-passage to define \emph{first-passage resetting}, where the resetting of a random walk to a fixed position is triggered by a first-passage event of the walk itself. In an infinite domain,…
