We propose local-biased random walks on general networks where a Markovian walker can choose between different types of biases in each node to define transitions to its neighbors depending on their degrees. For this ergodic dynamics, we…
We study the first passage statistics to adsorbing boundaries of a Brownian motion in bounded two-dimensional domains of different shapes and configurations of the adsorbing and reflecting boundaries. From extensive numerical analysis we…
Biochemical processes in cells are governed by complex networks of many chemical species interacting stochastically in diverse ways and on different time scales. Constructing microscopically accurate models of such networks is often…
We introduce a diffusion model for energetically inhomogeneous systems. A random walker moves on a spin-S Ising configuration, which generates the energy landscape on the lattice through the nearest-neighbors interaction. The underlying…
We investigate a self-interacting random walk, whose dynamically evolving environment is a random tree built by the walker itself, as it walks around. At time $n=1,2,\dots$, right before stepping, the walker adds a random number (possibly…
The first-passage time (FPT), defined as the time a random walker takes to reach a target point in a confining domain, is a key quantity in the theory of stochastic processes. Its importance comes from its crucial role to quantify the…
In this work we investigate the dynamics of random walk processes on scale-free networks in a short to moderate time scale. We perform extensive simulations for the calculation of the mean squared displacement, the network coverage and the…
In general, the power-law degree distribution has profound influence on various dynamical processes defined on scale-free networks. In this paper, we will show that power-law degree distribution alone does not suffice to characterize the…
We consider random walks with independent but not necessarily identical distributed increments. Assuming that the increments satisfy the well-known Lindeberg condition, we investigate the asymptotic behaviour of first-passage times over…
Random walks on discrete lattices are fundamental models that form the basis for our understanding of transport and diffusion processes. For a single random walker on complex networks, many properties such as the mean first passage time and…
The position density of a "particle" performing a continuous-time quantum walk on the integer lattice, viewed on length scales inversely proportional to the time t, converges (as t tends to infinity) to a probability distribution that…
We determine the asymptotic speed of the first-passage percolation process on some ladder-like graphs (or width-2 stretches) when the times associated with different edges are independent and exponentially distributed but not necessarily…
Using random walk simulations we explore diffusive transport through monodisperse sphere packings over a range of packing fractions, $\phi$, in the vicinity of the jamming transition at $\phi_{c}$. Various diffusion properties are computed…
In the study of dynamical processes on networks, there has been intense focus on network structure -- i.e., the arrangement of edges and their associated weights -- but the effects of the temporal patterns of edges remains poorly…
This paper deals with a transient random walk in Dirichlet environment, or equivalently a linearly edge reinforced random walk, on a Galton-Watson tree. We compute the stationary distribution of the environment seen from the particle of an…
A natural extension of a right-continuous integer-valued random walk is one which can jump to the right by one or two units. First passage times above a given fixed level then admit a tractable Laplace transform (probability generating…
We present an analytical approach to study simple symmetric random walks (RWs) on a crossing geometry consisting of a plane square lattice crossed by $n_l$ number of lines that all meet each other at a single point (the origin) on the…
Quantum walks are quantum counterparts of random walks and their probability distributions are different from each other. A quantum walker distributes on a Hilbert space and it is observed at a location with a probability. The finding…
We examine the aggregate behavior of one-dimensional random walks in a model known as (one-dimensional) Internal Diffusion Limited Aggregation. In this model, a sequence of $n$ particles perform random walks on the integers, beginning at…
