We describe a criterion for particles suspended in a randomly moving fluid to aggregate. Aggregation occurs when the expectation value of a random variable is negative. This random variable evolves under a stochastic differential equation.…
The random sequential adsorption (RSA) model is modified to describe damage and crack accumulation. The exclusion for object deposition (for damaged region formation) is not for the whole object, as in the standard RSA, but only for the…
The random graph is an infinite graph with the universal property that any embedding of $G-v$ extends to an embedding of $G$, for any finite graph. In this paper we show that this graph embeds in the curve graph of a surface $\Sigma$ if and…

We consider a random sequential adsorption process on the one-dimensional lattice with nearest-neighbor exclusion. In this model, each site $s \in \mathbb{Z}$ starts empty and we will try to occupy it in time $t_s$, where…
We introduce a sequential model for the deposition and aggregation of particles in the submonolayer regime. Once a particle has been randomly deposited on the substrate, it sticks to the closest atom or island within a distance \ell,…
Suppose that a $d$-dimensional domain is filled with a gas of (in general, interacting) diffusive particles with density $n_0$. A particle is absorbed whenever it reaches the domain boundary. Employing macroscopic fluctuation theory, we…

The effect of partial absorption on a diffusive particle which stochastically resets its position with a finite rate $r$ is considered. The particle is absorbed by a target at the origin with absorption `velocity' $a$; as the velocity $a$…
