A $d$-dimensional branching diffusion, $Z$, is investigated, where the linear attraction or repulsion between particles is competing with an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck drift, with parameter $b$ (we take $b>0$ for inward O-U and $b<0$ for outward…
The equation of the density field of an assembly of macroscopic particles advected by a hydrodynamic flow is derived from the microscopic description of the system. This equation allows to recognize the role and the relative importance of…
At time zero, there are $N$ identical point particles in the line (1D) which are characterized by their positions and velocities. Both values are given randomly and independently from each other, with arbitrary probability densities. Each…
The Bernoulli sieve is an infinite occupancy scheme obtained by allocating the points of a uniform $[0,1]$ sample over an infinite collection of intervals made up by successive positions of a multiplicative random walk independent of the…
The branching random walk is shown to be monotone decreasing in ascending direction of integer lattices as a corollary of an observation in regard to the lineage of particles from antisymmetric initial states, and a related property of…
We consider a multilevel continuous time Markov chain $X(s;N) = (X_i^j(s;N): 1 \leq i \leq j \leq N)$, which is defined by means of Jack symmetric functions and forms a certain discretization of the multilevel Dyson Brownian motion. The…
New bounds on the number of similar or directly similar copies of a pattern within a finite subset of the line or the plane are proved. The number of equilateral triangles whose vertices all lie within an $n$-point subset of the plane is…
We examine the reversible adsorption of hard spheres on a random site surface in which the adsorption sites are uniformly and randomly distributed on a plane. Each site can be occupied by one solute provided that the nearest occupied site…
A new sequential approach to investigations of structure of metric spaces at infinity is proposed. Criteria for finiteness and boundedness of metric spaces at infinity are found.
We study equilibrium states of an infinite system of interacting particles in a Euclidean space. The particles bear `unbounded' spins with a given symmetric a priori distribution. The interaction between the particles is pairwise and splits…
We study an interacting particle system in which moving particles activate dormant particles linked by the components of critical bond percolation. Addressing a conjecture from Beckman, Dinan, Durrett, Huo, and Junge for a continuous…
Repeat finding in strings has important applications in subfields such as computational biology. Surprisingly, all prior work on repeat finding did not consider the constraint on the locality of repeats. In this paper, we propose and study…
Shear induced orientational ordering of asymmetric elongated particles is investigated experimentally. Corn grains and pegs with one end sharpened are studied using X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) during quasistatic shearing and silo…
In ballistic annihilation, infinitely many particles with randomly assigned velocities move across the real line and mutually annihilate upon contact. We introduce a variant with superimposed clusters of multiple stationary particles. Our…
We address the dynamics of adsorbed molecules (a fundamental issue in surface physics) within the framework of a Master Equation scheme, and study the diffusion of particles in a finite cubic lattice whose boundaries are at the $z=1$ and…
The adsorption of particles diffusing in a half-space bounded by the substrate and irreversibly sticking to the substrate upon contacts is investigated. We show that when absorbing particles are planar disks diffusing in the…
We consider a branching random walk on $\mathbb{R}$ with a stationary and ergodic environment $\xi=(\xi_n)$ indexed by time $n\in\mathbb{N}$. Let $Z_n$ be the counting measure of particles of generation $n$. For the case where the…
In this paper, we study a distribution of labeled particles on a continuous ring. It arises in three different ways, all related to the multi-type TASEP on a ring. We prove formulas for the probability density function for some permutations…
Consider a critical nearest neighbor branching random walk on the $d$-dimensional integer lattice initiated by a single particle at the origin. Let $G_{n}$ be the event that the branching random walk survives to generation $n$. We obtain…
In this paper, we study a discrete system of entities residing on a two-dimensional square grid. Each entity is modelled as a node occupying a distinct cell of the grid. The set of all $n$ nodes forms initially a connected shape $A$.…
