We prove the invariance principle for a \emph{random Lorentz-gas} particle in 3 dimensions under the Boltzmann-Grad limit and simultaneous diffusive scaling. That is, for the trajectory of a point-like particle moving among infinite-mass,…
A derivation of the relative velocity used in the definition of the relativistic cross-section is given in terms of manifestly Lorentz invariant quantities. Along the way we find that there is a certain arbitrariness in the usual definition…

Contrary to what is often stated, a fundamental spacetime discreteness need not contradict Lorentz invariance. A causal set's discreteness is in fact locally Lorentz invariant, and we recall the reasons why. For illustration, we introduce a…

A Lorentz gas may be defined as a system of fixed dispersing scatterers, with a single light particle moving among these and making specular collisions on encounters with the scatterers. For a dilute Lorentz gas with open boundaries in $d$…
Collective diffusion coefficient in a one dimensional lattice gas adsorbate is calculated using variational approach. Particles interact via either a long-range, or a long range electron-gas-mediated (for a metallic substrate), or a…

In 1911, J\"uttner proposed the generalization, for a relativistic gas, of the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution of velocities. Here we want to discuss, among others, J\"uttner probability density function (PDF). Both the velocity space and,…
We study the dynamics of a particle moving in one-dimensional Lorentz lattice-gas where particle performs mainly three different kinds of motion {\it viz} ballistic motion, diffusion and confinement. There are two different types of…
The investigation of the diffusive transport of charged particles in a turbulent magnetic field remains a subject of considerable interest. Research has most frequently concentrated on determining the diffusion coefficient in the presence…
A new class of relativistic diffusions encompassing all the previously studied examples has recently been introduced by C. Chevalier and F. Debbasch, both in a heuristic and analytic way. A pathwise approach of these processes is proposed…
We calculate the diffusion coefficients of persistent random walks on cubic and hypercubic lattices, where the direction of a walker at a given step depends on the memory of one or two previous steps. These results are then applied to study…
