We study the stochastic motion of a particle subject to spatially varying Lorentz force in the small-mass limit. The limiting procedure yields an additional drift term in the overdamped equation that cannot be obtained by simply setting…

We study a particular generalisation of the classical Kramers model describing Brownian particles in the external potential. The generalised model includes the stochastic force which is modelled as an additive random noise that depends upon…

Active Brownian motion commonly assumes spherical overdamped particles. However, self-propelled particles are often neither symmetric nor overdamped yet underlie random fluctuations from their surroundings. Active Brownian motion has…

Many physical systems characterized by nonlinear multiscale interactions can be effectively modeled by treating unresolved degrees of freedom as random fluctuations. However, even when the microscopic governing equations and qualitative…

Covariance of the resulting probabilities requires the "anti-Ito" sense. The corresponding Fokker-Planck equation is simplified and preserves important features of the case with a constant diffusion. Multiplicative noise can always be…

We present a new method to sample conditioned trajectories of a system evolving under Langevin dynamics, based on Brownian bridges. The trajectories are conditioned to end at a certain point (or in a certain region) in space. The bridge…

Lyapunov exponents of dynamical systems are defined from the rates of divergence of nearby trajectories. For stochastic systems, one typically assumes that these trajectories are generated under the "same noise realization". The purpose of…
