We investigate the run and tumble particle (RTP), also known as persistent Brownian motion, in one dimension. A telegraphic noise $\sigma(t)$ drives the particle which changes between $\pm 1$ values with some rates. Denoting the rate of…

Based on a recently established formalism (U. Ebert, J. Stat. Phys. 82, 183 (1996)) we analyze the diffusive motion of a long polymer in a quenched random medium. The medium is modeled by a frozen semidilute polymer system. In the framework…

Single-file diffusion (SFD) is a key mechanism underlying transport phenomena in confined physical and biological systems. In a typical SFD process, microscopic particles are restricted to moving in a narrow channel where they cannot pass…

Brownian motion of free particles on curved surfaces is studied by means of the Langevin equation written in Riemann normal coordinates. In the diffusive regime we find the same physical behavior as the one described by the diffusion…

We study the Brownian motion of a classical particle in one-dimensional inhomogeneous environments where the transition probabilities follow quasiperiodic or aperiodic distributions. Exploiting an exact correspondence with the…
