The detection of change points is a pivotal task in statistical analysis. In the quantum realm, it is a new primitive where one aims at identifying the point where a source that supposedly prepares a sequence of particles in identical…

We study a generalization of the standard trapping problem of random walk theory in which particles move subdiffusively on a one-dimensional lattice. We consider the cases in which the lattice is filled with a one-sided and a two-sided…

We study the motion of two non-interacting quantum particles performing a random walk on a line and analyze the probability that the two particles are detected at a particular position after a certain number of steps (meeting problem). The…

Considering the dynamics of non-interacting particles randomly moving on a lattice, the occurrence of a discontinuous transition in the values of the lattice parameters (lattice spacing and hopping times) determines the uprisal of two…

We show the existence of a phase transition between a localisation and a non-localisation regime for a branching random walk with a catalyst at the origin. More precisely, we consider a continuous-time branching random walk that jumps at…

The one-dimensional symmetric exclusion process, the simplest interacting particle process, is a lattice-gas made of particles that hop symmetrically on a discrete line respecting hard-core exclusion. The system is prepared on the infinite…

We study a persistent exclusion process with time-periodic external potential on a 1d periodic lattice through numerical simulations. A set of run-and-tumble particles move on a lattice of length $L$ and tumbling probability $\gamma \ll 1$…

In this work we study a kinetic model of active particles with delayed dynamics, and its limit when the number of particles goes to infinity. This limit turns out to be related to delayed differential equations with random initial…

We investigate a stochastic process consisting of a two-dimensional particle with anisotropic diffusion, mortality rate and a drift velocity, in the presence of an absorbing boundary. After the particle has encountered the boundary, the…
