We study the single file diffusion problem on a one-dimensional lattice with a self-similar distribution of hopping rates. We find that the time dependence of the mean-square displacement of both a tagged particle and the center of mass of…
We derive some regularity estimates of the solution to a time fractional diffusion equation, that are useful for numerical analysis, and partially unravel the singularity structure of the solution with respect to the time variable.
Two-scale homogenization limits of parabolic cross-diffusion systems in a heterogeneous medium with no-flux boundary conditions are proved. The heterogeneity of the medium is reflected in the diffusion coefficients or by the perforated…
We consider a spatially homogeneous advection-diffusion equation in which the diffusion tensor and drift velocity are time-independent, but otherwise general. We derive asymptotic expressions, valid at large distances from a steady point…
We show analytically that there is anomalous diffusion when the diffusion constant depends on the concentration as a power law with a positive exponent or a negative exponent with absolute value less than one and the initial condition is a…
Since the famous 1926 paper by Richardson, the relative diffusion of two particles in a turbulent liquid has attracted a lot of interest. The motion of a single particle on the other hand is usually considered not to be especially…
We study the time delay of reflected and transmitted waves in 1D disordered media with high transmission. Highly transparent and translucent random media are found in nature or can be synthetically produced. We perform numerical simulations…
We give an exact application of a recently developed, operator-based theory of wave propagation in dispersive, time-varying media. Using this theory we find that the usual symmetry of complex conjugation plus changing the sign of the…
We extend some results on the convergence of one-dimensional diffusions killed at the boundary, conditioned on extended survival, to the case of general killing on the interior. We show, under fairly general conditions, that a diffusion…
We consider sequences of random variables whose probability generating functions are polynomials all of whose roots lie on the unit circle. The distribution of such random variables has only been sporadically studied in the literature. We…

We extend the methods and results of [arXiv 1603.04896] to the setting of multinomial distributions satisfying certain properties. These include all the multinomial distributions arising from the direct proof of the Central Limit Theorem…
The single-file problem of N particles in one spatial dimension is analyzed, when each particle has a randomly distributed diffusion constant D sampled in a density $\rho(D)$. The averaged one-particle distributions of the edge particles…
We study the long-time asymptotic behavior of the position distribution of a run-and-tumble particle (RTP) in two dimensions and show that the distribution at a time $t$ can be expressed as a perturbative series in $(\gamma t)^{-1}$, where…
A reaction-diffusion equation is studied in a time-dependent interval whose length varies with time. The reaction term is either linear or of KPP type. On a fixed interval, it is well-known that if the length is less than a certain critical…
We consider the Cauchy problem for a system of balance laws derived from a chemotaxis model with singular sensitivity in multiple space dimensions. Utilizing energy methods, we first prove the global well-posedness of classical solutions to…
Hysteresis in the pressure-saturation relation in unsaturated porous media, owing to surface tension on the liquid-gas interface, exhibits strong degeneracy in the resulting mass balance equation. As an extension of previous existence and…
It is shown that every conditional spreading sequence can be decomposed into two well behaved parts, one being unconditional and the other being convex block homogeneous, i.e. equivalent to its convex block sequences. This decomposition is…

It is shown that as far as the linear diffusion equation meets both time- and space- translational invariance, the time dependence of a moment of degree $\alpha$ is a polynomial of degree at most equal to $\alpha$, while all connected…
