In this Topical Review we consider stochastic processes under resetting, which have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. We begin with the simple example of a diffusive particle whose position is reset randomly in time with a…

A random search of a partially absorbing target by a run-and-tumble particle in a confined one-dimensional space is investigated. We analytically obtain the mean searching time, which shows a non-monotonic behavior as a function of the…

First passage in a stochastic process may be influenced by the presence of an external confining potential, as well as "stochastic resetting" in which the process is repeatedly reset back to its initial position. Here we study the interplay…

We study how stochastic resetting affects first-passage processes in systems of many interacting particles. While resetting is well understood for single-particle dynamics, its consequences for collective behavior remain less clear. We…

We consider a particle undergoing diffusion with stochastic resetting in a bounded domain $\calU\subset \R^d$ for $d=2,3$. The domain is perforated by a set of partially absorbing targets within which the particle may be absorbed at a rate…

Consider a particle which is randomly accelerated by Gaussian white noise on the line segment $0<x<1$ and is absorbed as soon as it reaches $x=0$ or $x=1$. The mean absorption time $T(x,v)$, where $x$ and $v$ denote the initial position and…

In this paper, we develop an encounter-based model of partial surface adsorption for fractional diffusion in a bounded domain. We take the probability of adsorption to depend on the amount of particle-surface contact time, as specified by a…

In this paper we consider a threshold surface absorption mechanism for a particle diffusing in a domain containing a single target $\calU $. The target boundary $\partial \calU$ is taken to be a reactive surface that modifies an internal…

In this paper we develop an encounter-based model of reaction-subdiffusion in a domain $\Omega$ with a partially absorbing interior trap $\calU\subset \Omega$. We assume that the particle can freely enter and exit $\calU$, but is only…

We present a model of one-dimensional irreversible adsorption in which particles once adsorbed immediately shrink to a smaller size or expand to a larger size. Exact solutions for the fill factor and the particle number variance as a…

We consider a Brownian particle diffusing in a one dimensional interval with absorbing end points. We study the ramifications when such motion is interrupted and restarted from the same initial configuration. We provide a comprehensive…

The study of diffusion with preferential returns to places visited in the past has attracted an increased attention in recent years. In these highly non-Markov processes, a standard diffusive particle intermittently resets at a given rate…

We investigate the first passage properties of a Brownian particle diffusing freely inside a $d$-dimensional sphere with absorbing spherical surface subject to stochastic resetting. We derive the mean time to absorption (MTA) as functions…

We investigate classic diffusion with the added feature that a diffusing particle is reset to its starting point each time the particle reaches a specified threshold. In an infinite domain, this process is non-stationary and its probability…
