Single-file diffusion is a one-dimensional interacting infinite-particle system in which the order of particles never changes. An intriguing feature of single-file diffusion is that the mean-square displacement of a tagged particle exhibits…

We investigate the single-file dynamics of a tagged particle in a system consisting of N hardcore interacting particles (the particles cannot pass each other) which are diffusing in a one-dimensional system where the particles have…

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…

Strong positional correlations between particles render the diffusion of a tracer particle in a single file anomalous and non-Markovian. While ensemble average observables of tracer particles are nowadays well understood, little is known…

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 apply macroscopic fluctuation theory to study the diffusion of a tracer in a one-dimensional interacting particle system with excluded mutual passage, known as single-file diffusion. In the case of Brownian point particles with hard-core…

We consider a gas of point particles moving on the one-dimensional line with a hard-core inter-particle interaction that prevents particle crossings --- this is usually referred to as single-file motion. The individual particle dynamics can…

Single-file transport refers to the motion of particles in a narrow channel, such that they cannot bypass each other. This constraint leads to strong correlations between the particles, described by correlation profiles, which measure the…

We study the effect of spatially-varying potential and diffusivity on the dispersion of a tracer particle in single-file diffusion. Non-interacting particles in such a system exhibit normal diffusion at late times, which is characterised by…

The single-file problem of N particles in one spatial dimension is analyzed, when each particle has a randomly distributed diffusion constant D sampled in a density $\rho(D)$. The averaged one-particle distributions of the edge particles…

The paper addresses the single-file diffusion in the presence of an absorbing boundary. The emphasis is on an interplay between the hard-core interparticle interaction and the absorption process. The resulting dynamics exhibits several…

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, $\lambda\dot{x}=\eta(t)$,…
