It has been conjectured that the critical density of the Activated Random Walk model is strictly less than one for any value of the sleeping rate. We prove this conjecture on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ when $d \geq 3$ and, more generally, on graphs…

In the stochastic sandpile model on a graph, particles interact pairwise as follows: if two particles occupy the same vertex, they must each take an independent random walk step with some probability $0<p<1$ of not moving. These…

The notion of Self-organized criticality (SOC) had been conceived to interpret the spontaneous emergence of long range correlations in nature. Since then many different models had been introduced to study SOC. All of them have few common…

We study a random walk driven by a particle system from a generic class, and establish a law of large numbers for the walk for almost all densities of the environment. To do so, we exploit the finite-ranged approximations of the environment…

We study the dynamics of the Stochastic Sandpile Model on finite graphs, with two main results. First, we describe a procedure to exactly sample from the stationary distribution of the model in all connected finite graphs, extending a…

Living systems maintain stable internal states despite environmental fluctuations. Absolute concentration robustness (ACR) is a striking homeostatic phenomenon in which the steady-state concentration of a species remains invariant despite…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the critical density of the activated random walk model as the sleep rate $\lambda$ tends to $0$ and $\infty$. For large $\lambda$, we prove new lower bounds in dimensions 1 and 2, showing that in one…

We examine a two-dimensional system of sterically repulsive interacting disks where each particle runs in a random direction. This system is equivalent to a run-and-tumble dynamics system in the limit where the run time is infinite. At low…

We have numerically studied the trapping problem in a two-dimensional lattice where particles are continuously generated. We have introduced interaction between particles and directionality of their movement. This model presents a critical…

We study a general continuous-time random walk (CTRW), by including non-Markovian cases and L\'evy flights, under complete stochastic resetting to the initial position with an arbitrary law, which can be power-lawed as well as Poissonian.…

We study the first passage dynamics of an ageing stochastic process in the continuous time random walk (CTRW) framework. In such CTRW processes the test particle performs a random walk, in which successive steps are separated by random…

Random walk in random environment (RWRE) is a fundamental model of statistical mechanics, describing the movement of a particle in a highly disordered and inhomogeneous medium as a random walk with random jump probabilities. It has been…

We show that for small enough sleep rate, the critical density of the symmetric Activated Random Walk model on $\mathbb Z^2$ is strictly less than one.

We introduce a model of interacting Random Walk, whose hopping amplitude depends on the number of walkers/particles on the link. The mesoscopic counterpart of such a microscopic dynamics is a diffusing system whose diffusivity depends on…

We investigate the dynamics of a particle executing a general Continuous Time Random Walk (CTRW) in three dimensions under the influence of arbitrary time-varying external fields. Contrary to the general approach in recent works, our method…

Brownian motion is a well-known model for normal diffusion, but not all physical phenomena behave according to a Brownian motion. Many phenomena exhibit irregular diffusive behavior, called anomalous diffusion. Examples of anomalous…
