We provide a rigorous derivation of the brownian motion as the hydrodynamic limit of a deterministic system of hard-spheres as the number of particles $N$ goes to infinity and their diameter $\varepsilon$ simultaneously goes to $0,$ in the…

We consider a branching-selection particle system on $\Z$ with $N \geq 1$ particles. During a branching step, each particle is replaced by two new particles, whose positions are shifted from that of the original particle by independently…

Euclidean branching Brownian motion (BBM) has been intensively studied during many decades by renowned researchers. BBM on hyperbolic space has received less attention. A profound study of Lalley and Sellke (1997) provided insight on the…

We consider the long-time behaviour of binary branching Brownian motion (BBM) where the branching rate depends on a periodic spatial heterogeneity. We prove that almost surely as $t\to\infty$, the heterogeneous BBM at time $t$, normalized…

The conventional equations of Brownian motion can be derived from the first principles to order $\lambda^2=m/M$, where $m$ and $M$ are the masses of a bath molecule and a Brownian particle respectively. We discuss the extension to order…

The classical theory of Brownian dynamics follows from coarse-graining the underlying linearized fluctuating hydrodynamics of the solvent. We extend this procedure to globally non-isothermal conditions, requiring only a local thermal…
