In the simplest model of single-file diffusion, $N$ point particles wander on a segment of the $x$ axis of length $L$, with hard core interactions, which prevent passing, and with overdamped Brownian dynamics, $\lambda\dot{x}=\eta(t)$,…

We derive and study a theoretical description for single file diffusion, i.e., diffusion in a one dimensional lattice of particles with hard core interaction. It is well known that for this system a tagged particle has anomalous diffusion…

We investigate the problem of effusion of particles initially confined in a finite one-dimensional box of size $L$. We study both passive as well active scenarios, involving non-interacting diffusive particles and run-and-tumble particles,…

Diffusion of small particles is omnipresent in a plentiful number of processes occurring in Nature. As such, it is widely studied and exerted in almost all branches of sciences. It constitutes such a broad and often rather complex subject…

We investigate a diffusive motion of a system of interacting Brownian particles in quasi-one-dimensional micropores. In particular, we consider a semi-infinite 1D geometry with a partially absorbing boundary and the hard-core inter-particle…

Single-file diffusion refers to the Brownian motion in narrow channels where particles cannot pass each other. In such processes, the diffusion of a tagged particle is typically normal at short times and becomes subdiffusive at long times.…

We consider a gas of point particles moving in a one-dimensional channel with a hard-core inter-particle interaction that prevents particle crossings --- this is called single-file motion. Starting from equilibrium initial conditions we…
