We use the Bond Fluctuation Model (BFM) to study the pore-blockade times of a translocating polymer of length $N$ in two dimensions, in the absence of external forces on the polymer (i.e., unbiased translocation) and hydrodynamic…
We study a one dimensional directed polymer model in an inverse-gamma random environment, known as the log-gamma polymer, in three different geometries: point-to-line, point-to-half line and when the polymer is restricted to a half space…
The Random Walk Pinning Model (RWPM) is a statistical mechanics model in which the trajectory of a continuous time random walk $X=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is rewarded according to the time it spends together with a moving catalyst. More…

A well known connection between first-passage probability of random walk and distribution of electrical potential described by Laplace equation is studied. We simulate random walk in the plane numerically as a discrete time process with…
We consider large time behavior of typical paths under the Anderson polymer measure. If $P$ is the measure induced by rate $\kappa,$ simple, symmetric random walk on $Z^d$ started at $x,$ this measure is defined as $$ d\mu(X)={Z^{-1}…
We study the probability distribution, $P_N(T)$, of the coincidence time $T$, i.e. the total local time of all pairwise coincidences of $N$ independent Brownian walkers. We consider in details two geometries: Brownian motions all starting…
We suggest a governing equation which describes the process of polymer chain translocation through a narrow pore and reconciles the seemingly contradictory features of such dynamics: (i) a Gaussian probability distribution of the…
We establish a second-order almost sure limit theorem for the minimal position in a one-dimensional super-critical branching random walk, and also prove a martingale convergence theorem which answers a question of Biggins and Kyprianou [9].…
Let $\tau = (\tau_i : i \in {\Bbb Z})$ denote i.i.d.~positive random variables with common distribution $F$ and (conditional on $\tau$) let $X = (X_t : t\geq0, X_0=0)$, be a continuous-time simple symmetric random walk on ${\Bbb Z}$ with…
We study analytically a simple random walk model on a one-dimensional lattice, where at each time step the walker resets to the maximum of the already visited positions (to the rightmost visited site) with a probability $r$, and with…
We analyze a class of continuous time random walks in $\mathbb R^d,d\geq 2,$ with uniformly distributed directions. The steps performed by these processes are distributed according to a generalized Dirichlet law. Given the number of changes…
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…
In this article, we try to give a rather complete picture of the behavior of the free energy for a model of directed polymer in a random environment, in which the polymer is a simple symmetric random walk on the lattice $\Z^d$, and the…
We devise a protocol to build 1D time-dependent quantum walks in 1D maximizing the spatial spread throughout the procedure. We allow only one of the physical parameters of the coin-tossing operator to vary, i.e. the angle $\theta$, such…
A correlated random walk approach to diffusion is applied to the disordered nonoverlapping Lorentz gas. By invoking the Lu-Torquato theory for chord-length distributions in random media [J. Chem. Phys. 98, 6472 (1993)], an analytic…
This article is devoted to the study of the behaviour of a (1+1)-dimensional model of random walk conditioned to enclose an area of order $N^2$. Such a conditioning enforces a globally concave trajectory. We study the local deviations of…
The purpose of this paper is to study a one-dimensional polymer penalized by its range and placed in a random environment $\omega$. The law of the simple symmetric random walk up to time $n$ is modified by the exponential of the sum of…
We derive a functional central limit theorem for the excursion of a random walk conditioned on sweeping a prescribed geometric area. We assume that the increments of the random walk are integer-valued, centered, with a third moment equal to…
