We consider a particle transport process in a one-dimensional system with a thin membrane, described by a normal diffusion equation. We consider two boundary conditions at the membrane that are linear combinations of integral operators,…
We study slow-subdiffusion in comparison to subdiffusion. Both of the processes are treated as random walks and can be described within continuous time random walk formalism. However, the probability density of the waiting time of a random…

Restrictions to molecular motion by barriers (membranes) are ubiquitous in biological tissues, porous media and composite materials. A major challenge is to characterize the microstructure of a material or an organism nondestructively using…
Nonergodicity observed in single-particle tracking experiments is usually modeled by transient trapping rather than spatial disorder. We introduce models of a particle diffusing in a medium consisting of regions with random sizes and random…
Mathematical models of motility are often based on random-walk descriptions of discrete individuals that can move according to certain rules. It is usually the case that large masses concentrated in small regions of space have a great…
Motivated by various recent experimental findings, we propose a dynamical model of intermittently self-propelled particles: active particles that recurrently switch between two modes of motion, namely an active run-state and a turn state,…
Experiments on particles' motion in living cells show that it is often subdiffusive. This subdiffusion may be due to trapping, percolation-like structures, or viscoelatic behavior of the medium. While the models based on trapping (leading…
Transport phenomena play a crucial role in modern physics and applied sciences. Examples include the dissipation of energy across a large system, the distribution of quantum information in optical networks, and the timely modeling of…
Quantum walks constitute important tools in different applications, especially in quantum algorithms. To a great extent their usefulness is due to unusual diffusive features, allowing much faster spreading than their classical counterparts.…
A particle moves randomly over the integer points of the real line. Jumps of the particle outside the membrane (a fixed "locally perturbating set") are i.i.d., have zero mean and finite variance, whereas jumps of the particle from the…
