Fractional kinetic equations employ non-integer calculus to model anomalous relaxation and diffusion in many systems. While this approach is well explored, it so far failed to describe an important class of transport in disordered systems.…

From the spread of pollutants in the atmosphere to the transmission of nutrients across cell membranes, anomalous diffusion processes are ubiquitous in natural systems. The ability to understand and control the mechanisms guiding such…

We summarise different results on the diffusion of a tracer particle in lattice gases of hard-core particles with stochastic dynamics, which are confined to narrow channels -- single-files, comb-like structures and quasi-one-dimensional…

We study bidisperse colloidal suspensions confined within glass microcapillary tubes to model the glass transition in confined cylindrical geometries. We use high speed three-dimensional confocal microscopy to observe particle motions for a…

Discontinuous transitions into absorbing states require an effective mechanism that prevents the stabilization of low density states. They can be found in different systems, such as lattice models or stochastic differential equations (e.g.…

We investigate a contaminant transport in fractal media with randomly inhomogeneous diffusion barrier. The diffusion barrier is a low permeable matrix with extremely rare high permeability pathways (punctures). At times, less than a…

Single-file systems, in which particles diffuse in narrow channels while not overtaking each other, is a fundamental model for the tracer subdiffusion observed in confined geometries, such as in zeolites or carbon nanotubes. Twenty years…

Single-file diffusion refers to the motion in narrow channels of particles which cannot bypass each other. These strong correlations between particles lead to tracer subdiffusion, which has been observed in contexts as varied as transport…

We investigate the long-time behavior of the survival probability of a tagged particle in a single-file diffusion in a finite interval. The boundary conditions are of two types: 1) one boundary is absorbing the second is reflecting, 2) both…

The concept of random walk, in which particles or waves undergo multiple collisions with the microscopic constituents of a surrounding medium, is central to understanding diffusive transport across many research areas. However, this…

Active particles may happen to be confined in channels so narrow that they cannot overtake each other (Single File conditions). This interesting situation reveals nontrivial physical features as a consequence of the strong inter-particle…

Fluids confined to quasi-one-dimensional channels exhibit a dynamic crossover from single file diffusion to normal diffusion as the channel becomes wide enough for particles to hop past each other. In the crossover regime, where hopping…

We introduce a simple model of deterministic particles in weakly disordered media which exhibits a transition from normal to anomalous diffusion. The model consists of a set of non-interacting overdamped particles moving on a disordered…

Active adaptive matter has attracted considerable interest due to its rich, largely unexplained dynamics and its relevance to a wide range of synthetic and biological materials. An important subclass of such systems consists of active…

Single file translocation of a homopolymer through an active channel under the presence of a driving force is studied using Langevin dynamics simulation. It is shown that a channel with sticky walls and oscillating width could lead to…

We review recent results on the anomalous transport in one-dimensional and quasi-one-dimensional systems with bulk and surface disorder. Main attention is paid to the role of long-range correlations in random potentials for the bulk…

We study transport in a one-dimensional boundary-driven Anderson insulator (the XX spin chain with onsite disorder) with randomly positioned onsite dephasing, observing a transition from diffusive to subdiffusive spin transport below a…

We study transport of interacting particles in weakly disordered media. Our one-dimensional system includes (i) disorder: the hopping rate governing the movement of a particle between two neighboring lattice sites is inhomogeneous, and (ii)…

Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of particle-laden turbulent flow in straight, mildly curved and strongly bent pipes are performed in which the solid phase is modelled as small heavy spherical particles. A total of seven populations of…

Bulk AlN possesses high thermal conductivity due to long phonon mean-free-paths, high group velocity, and long lifetimes. However, the thermal transport scenario becomes very different in a thin AlN film due to phonon-defect and…
