We calculate the probability distribution function (PDF) of an overdamped Brownian particle moving in a periodic potential energy landscape $U(x)$. The PDF is found by solving the corresponding Smoluchowski diffusion equation. We derive the…
We study coupled random walks in the plane such that, at each step, the walks change direction by a uniform random angle plus an extra deterministic angle \theta. We compute the Hausdorff dimension of the \theta for which the walk has an…
We propose a new approach to quantize the marginals of the discrete Euler diffusion process. The method is built recursively and involves the conditional distribution of the marginals of the discrete Euler process. Analytically, the method…
In this paper, we determine the Poisson boundary of the relativistic Brownian motion in two classes of Lorentzian manifolds, namely model manifolds of constant scalar curvature and Robertson--Walker space-times, the latter constituting a…
The interaction between spin and gravitational waves causes spinning bodies to deviate from their geodesics. In this work, we obtain the analytic solution of the Mathisson--Papapetrou--Dixon equations at linear order in the spin for plane…

About thirty years ago we looked for "minimal assumptions" on the data which guarantee that solutions to the $\,2-D\,$ evolution Euler equations in a bounded domain are classical. Classical means here that all the derivatives appearing in…

A quantum random walk model is established on a one-dimensional periodic lattice that fluctuates between two possible states. This model is defined by Lindblad rate equations that incorporate the transition rates between the two lattice…
