We study the asymptotic distribution of random walks on $\mathbb Z^d$ ($d\ge1$) in deterministic reversible environments defined by an assignment of a positive conductance to each edge of $\mathbb Z^d$. We identify a deterministic set of…

We consider partially directed walks crossing a $L\times L$ square weighted according to their length by a fugacity $t$. The exact solution of this model is computed in three different ways, depending on whether $t$ is less than, equal to…

We study the mean first passage time of a one-dimensional random walker with step sizes decaying exponentially in discrete time. That is step sizes go like $\lambda^{n}$ with $\lambda\leq1$ . We also present, for pedagogical purposes, a…

We investigate the diffusive motion of an overdamped classical particle in a 1D random potential using the mean first-passage time formalism and demonstrate the efficiency of this method in the investigation of the large-time dynamics of…

We consider single particle and polymer translocation where the frictional properties experienced from the environment are changing in time. This work is motivated by the interesting frequency responsive behaviour observed when a polymer is…

Although time-dependent random media with short range correlations lead to (possibly biased) normal tracer diffusion, anomalous fluctuations occur away from the most probable direction. This was pointed out recently in 1D lattice random…

We study memory based random walk models to understand diffusive motion in crowded heterogeneous environment. The models considered are non-Markovian as the current move of the random walk models is determined by randomly selecting a move…

We perform a Monte Carlo study of $N$-step self-avoiding walks, attached to the corner of an impenetrable wedge in two dimensions ($d=2$), or the tip of an impenetrable cone in $d=3$, of sizes ranging up to $N=10^6$ steps. We find that the…

We study biased random walk on the infinite connected component of supercritical percolation on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for $d\geq 2$. For this model, Fribergh and Hammond showed the existence of an exponent $\gamma$ such that:…

Polymer translocation in crowded environments is a ubiquitous phenomenon in biological systems. We studied polymer translocation through a pore in free, one-sided (asymmetric), and two-sided (symmetric) crowded environments. Extensive…
