We establish the large deviation principle for the slow variables in slow-fast dynamical system driven by both Brownian noises and L\'evy noises. The fast variables evolve at much faster time scale than the slow variables, but they are…

We consider different Markovian embedding schemes of non-Markovian stochastic processes that are described by generalized Langevin equations (GLE) and obey thermal detailed balance under equilibrium conditions. At thermal equilibrium…

We study the evolution of a particle system whose genealogy is given by a supercritical continuous time Galton--Watson tree. The particles move independently according to a Markov process and when a branching event occurs, the offspring…

We study the efficiency of random search processes based on L{\'e}vy flights with power-law distributed jump lengths in the presence of an external drift, for instance, an underwater current, an airflow, or simply the bias of the searcher…

Strong interaction with other particles or feedback from the medium on a Brownian particle entail memory effects in the effective dynamics. We discuss the extension of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem to nonequilibrium Langevin systems…

We solve a model of sluggish stochastic motion in which a Brownian particle diffuses with a diffusion coefficient that decays algebraically with the distance to the origin, as $|x|^{-\alpha}$. Additionally, the particle resets with a…
