Theoretical analysis of random walk on percolation lattices has predicted that, at the occupied site concentrations of above the threshold value, a characteristic crossover between an initial sub-diffusion to a final classical diffusion…
On infinite homogeneous structures, two random walkers meet with certainty if and only if the structure is recurrent, i.e., a single random walker returns to its starting point with probability 1. However, on general inhomogeneous…
We have studied experimentally transport properties in a slowly driven granular system which recently was shown to display self-organized criticality [Frette {\em et al., Nature} {\bf 379}, 49 (1996)]. Tracer particles were added to a pile…
The effect of crowding on the run-and-tumble dynamics of swimmers such as bacteria is studied using a discrete lattice model of mutually excluding particles that move with constant velocity along a direction that is randomized at a rate…
We study the motion of a particle moving on a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice, whose sites are randomly occupied by either right or left rotators, which rotate the particle's velocity to its right or left, according to deterministic…
Sufficiently strong inter-site interactions in extended-Hubbard and XXZ spin models result in dynamically-bound clusters at neighboring sites. We show that the dynamics of these clusters in two-dimensional lattices is remarkably different…
We study a family of interacting particle systems with annihilating and coalescing reactions. Two types of particles are interspersed throughout a transitive unimodular graph. Both types diffuse as simple random walks with possibly…
We study a kinetically constrained lattice glass model in which continuous local densities are randomly redistributed on neighbouring sites with a kinetic constraint that inhibits the process at high densities, and a random bias accounting…
The density conjecture for activated random walk on the interval was recently resolved using a new tool called layer percolation. As a step towards understanding how layer percolation extends to activated random walk on more complex graphs,…
We introduce a model for active transport on inhomogeneous networks embedded in a diffusive environment and investigate the formation of particle clusters. In the presence of a hard-core interaction, cluster sizes exhibit an algebraically…
Tracer dynamics in the Symmetric Exclusion Process, where hardcore particles diffuse on an infinite one-dimensional lattice, is a paradigmatic model of anomalous diffusion. While the equilibrium situation has received a lot of attention,…
The common perception is that strong coupling to the environment will always render the evolution of the system density matrix quasi-classical (in fact, diffusive) in the long time limit. We present here a counter-example, in which a…
We investigate the dynamics of a single tracer particle performing Brownian motion in a two-dimensional course of randomly distributed hard obstacles. At a certain critical obstacle density, the motion of the tracer becomes anomalous over…
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…
We consider a generalised diffusion equation in two dimensions for modeling diffusion on a comb-like structures. We analyse the probability distribution functions and we derive the mean squared displacement in $x$ and $y$ directions.…
Collective diffusion coefficient in a one dimensional lattice gas adsorbate is calculated using variational approach. Particles interact via either a long-range, or a long range electron-gas-mediated (for a metallic substrate), or a…
Diffusive transport of particles or, more generally, small objects is a ubiquitous feature of physical and chemical reaction systems. In configurations containing confining walls or constrictions transport is controlled both by the…
We study driven particle systems with excluded volume interactions on a two-lane ladder with periodic boundaries, using Monte Carlo simulation, cluster mean-field theory, and numerical solution of the master equation. Particles in one lane…
