Time-reflection occurs when a wave is propagating in a medium undergoing a large and abrupt change in its properties: the original wave splits into a time-refracted wave and a time-reflected wave, each displaying different features. The…

Consider a generalized diffusion on R with speed measure m, in the natural scale. It is known that the conditional hitting times have a unimodal density function. We show that these hitting densities are bell-shaped if and only if m has…
First hitting times (FHTs) describe the time it takes a random "searcher" to find a "target" and are used to study timescales in many applications. FHTs have been well-studied for diffusive search, especially for small targets, which is…
