We study the stationary states of an over-damped active Brownian particle (ABP) in a harmonic trap in two dimensions, via mathematical calculations and numerical simulations. In addition to translational diffusion, the ABP self-propels with…

The stationary reflected Brownian motion in a three-quarter plane has been rarely analyzed in the probabilistic literature, in comparison with the quarter plane analogue model. In this context, our main result is to prove that the…

Statistical properties of Brownian motion that arise by analyzing, separately, trajectories over which the system energy increases (upside) or decreases (downside) with respect to a threshold energy level, are derived. This selective…

We study a model for a massive test particle in a microscopic periodic potential and interacting with a reservoir of light particles. In the regime considered, the fluctuations in the test particle's momentum resulting from collisions…

We discuss the two-dimensional motion of a Brownian particle that is confined to a harmonic trap and driven by a shear flow. The surrounding medium induces memory effects modelled by a linear, typically nonreciprocal coupling of the…

We derive the non-Maxwellian distribution of self-gravitating $N$-body systems around the core by a model based on the random process with the additive and the multiplicative noise. The number density can be obtained through the steady…

In this paper, we study how the probability of presence of a particle is distributed between the two parts of a composite fermionic system. We uncover that the difference of probability depends on the energy in a striking way and show the…

We construct a two-dimensional diffusion process with rank-dependent local drift and dispersion coefficients, and with a full range of patterns of behavior upon collision that range from totally frictionless interaction, to elastic…

Consider two unit balls in a $d$-dimensional flat torus with edge length $r$, for $d\geq 2$. The balls do not move by themselves but they are pushed by a Brownian motion. The balls never intersect---they reflect if they touch. It is proved…

Linear diffusions are used to model a large number of stochastic processes in physics, including small mechanical and electrical systems perturbed by thermal noise, as well as Brownian particles controlled by electrical and optical forces.…

Rotating equilibrated systems are widespread, but relatively little attention has been devoted to studying them from the first principles of statistical mechanics. We fill this gap by studying a Brownian particle coupled with a thermal bath…
