We study the transport properties of a system of active particles moving at constant speed in an heterogeneous two-dimensional space. The spatial heterogeneity is modeled by a random distribution of obstacles, which the active particles…

We analyse the motion of a system of particles subjected a random force fluctuating in both space and time, and experiencing viscous damping. When the damping exceeds a certain threshold, the system undergoes a phase transition: the…

This article deals with the issues of global-in-time existence and asymptotic analysis of a fluid-particle interaction model in the so-called bubbling regime. The mixture occupies the physical space $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ which may…

Diffusion rates through a membrane can be asymmetric, if the diffusing particles are spatially extended and the pores in the membrane have asymmetric structure. This phenomenon is demonstrated here via a deterministic simulation of a…

We investigate diffusion of excitation in one- and two-dimensional lattices with random on-site energies and deterministic long-range couplings (hopping) inversely proportional to the distance. Three regimes of diffusion are observed in…

We consider systems of particles hopping stochastically on $d$-dimensional lattices with space-dependent probabilities. We map the master equation onto an evolution equation in a Fock space where the dynamics are given by a quantum…

This paper proposes a simple model of anomalous diffusion, in which a particle moves with the velocity field induced by a single "dipole" (a doublet or a pair of source and sink), whose moment is modulated randomly at each time step. A…

The asymptotic derivation of a new family of one-dimensional, weakly nonlinear and weakly dispersive equations that model the flow of an ideal fluid in an elastic vessel is presented. Dissipative effects due to the viscous nature of the…

Brownian particles in random potentials show an extended regime of subdiffusive dynamics at intermediate times. The asymptotic diffusive behavior is often established at very long times and thus cannot be accessed in experiments or…

We investigate systems of self-propelled particles with alignment interaction. Compared to previous work, the force acting on the particles is not normalized and this modification gives rise to phase transitions from disordered states at…

Different viewpoints on the asymptotic expansion of Feynman diagrams are reviewed. The relations between the field theoretic and diagrammatic approaches are sketched. The focus is on problems with large masses or large external momenta.…

The properties of a one space-dimension, one particle dynamical system under the influence of a purely dissipative force are investigated. Assuming this force depends only on the velocity, it is demonstrated, in contrast to the case of…

A novel probabilistic framework for modelling anomalous diffusion is presented. The resulting process is Markovian, non-homogeneous, non-stationary, non-ergodic, and state-dependent. The fundamental law governing this process is driven by…

We formulate a scaling theory for the long-time diffusive motion in a space occluded by a high density of moving obstacles in dimensions 1, 2 and 3. Our tracers diffuse anomalously over many decades in time, before reaching a diffusive…
