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…

The L\'evy walk process for the lower interval of the time of flight distribution ($\alpha<1$) and with finite resting time between consecutive flights is discussed. The motion is restricted to a region bounded by two absorbing barriers and…

We study discrete-time random walks on networks subject to a time-dependent stochastic resetting, where the walker either hops randomly between neighboring nodes with a probability $1-\phi(a)$, or is reset to a given node with a…

In this paper, we investigate the quest for a single target, that remains fixed in a lattice, by a set of independent walkers. The target exhibits a fluctuating behavior between trap and ordinary site of the lattice, whereas the walkers…

In this paper we consider the one-dimensional, biased, randomly trapped random walk when the trapping times have infinite variance. We prove sufficient conditions for the suitably scaled walk to converge to a transformation of a stable…

Stochastic resetting is a protocol of starting anew, which can be used to facilitate the escape kinetics. We demonstrate that restarting can accelerate the escape kinetics from a finite interval restricted by two absorbing boundaries also…

The coupling of branching-annihilating random walks to a static field with a local conservation law is shown to change the scaling properties of their phase transitions to absorbing states. In particular, we find that DP-class transitions…

The L\'evy hypothesis states that inverse square L\'evy walks are optimal search strategies because they maximise the encounter rate with sparse, randomly distributed, replenishable targets. It has served as a theoretical basis to interpret…

Homing and navigation are fundamental behaviors in biological systems that enable agents to reliably reach a target under uncertainty. We present a Reinforcement Learning (RL) framework to model adaptive homing in continuous two-dimensional…

Stochastic systems characterised by a random driving in a form of the general stable noise are considered. The particle experiences long rests due to the traps the density of which is position-dependent and obeys a power-law form attributed…

Finding efficient algorithms to explore large networks with the aim of recovering information about their structure is an open problem. Here, we investigate this challenge by proposing a model in which random walkers with previously…

The discrete stochastic dynamics of a random walker in the presence of resetting and memory is analyzed. Resetting and memory effects may compete for certain parameter regime and lead to significant changes in the long time dynamics of the…
