Diffusive scaling of position moments and a central limit theorem are obtained for the mean position of a quantum particle hopping on a cubic lattice and subject to a random potential consisting of a large static part and a small part that…

We investigate the mean first passage time of an active Brownian particle in one dimension using numerical simulations. The activity in one dimension is modeled as a two state model; the particle moves with a constant propulsion strength…

We introduce a location statistic for distributions on non-linear geometric spaces, the diffusion mean, serving as an extension and an alternative to the Fr\'echet mean. The diffusion mean arises as the generalization of Gaussian maximum…

We model an overdamped Brownian particle that is subject to resetting facilitated by a ratchet potential on a spatially periodic domain. This asymmetric potential switches on with a constant rate, but switches off again only upon the…

We study a one-dimensional gas of $N$ Brownian particles that diffuse independently, but are {\it simultaneously} reset to the origin at a constant rate $r$. The system approaches a non-equilibrium stationary state (NESS) with long-range…

We consider $N$ Brownian motions diffusing independently on a line, starting at $x_0>0$, in the presence of an absorbing target at the origin. The walkers undergo stochastic resetting under two protocols: (A) each walker resets…
