We study analytically the tracer particle mobility in single-file systems with distributed friction constants. Our system serves as a prototype for non-equilibrium, heterogeneous, strongly interacting Brownian systems. The long time…

In order to optimize the directed motion of an inertial Brownian motor, we identify the operating conditions that both maximize the motor current and minimize its dispersion. Extensive numerical simulation of an inertial rocked ratchet…

In this work, we establish a Trotter-Kato type theorem. More precisely, we characterize the convergence in distribution of Feller processes by examining the convergence of their generators. The main novelty lies in providing quantitative…

We consider first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with i.i.d. weights, whose distribution function satisfies $F(0) = p_c = 1/2$. This is sometimes known as the "critical case" because large clusters of zero-weight edges force passage…

We consider the area functional defined by the integral of an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process which starts from a given value and ends at the time it first reaches zero (its equilibrium level). Exact results are presented for the mean, variance,…

We consider the movement of a particle advected by a random flow of the form $\vv+\delta \bF(\vx)$, with $\vv\in\R^d$ a constant drift, $\bF(\vx)$ -- the fluctuation -- given by a zero mean, stationary random field and $\delta\ll 1$ so that…

An exact expression for the distribution of the area swept out by a drifted Brownian motion till its first-passage time is derived. A study of the asymptotic behaviour confirms earlier conjectures and clarifies their range of validity. The…

Since diffusion processes arise in so many different fields, efficient tech-nics for the simulation of sample paths, like discretization schemes, represent crucial tools in applied probability. Such methods permit to obtain approximations…

We consider $N$ Brownian motions diffusing independently on a line, starting at $x_0>0$, in the presence of an absorbing target at the origin. The walkers undergo stochastic resetting under two protocols: (A) each walker resets…

Brownian motion in terms of Lifson and Jackson (LJ) formula has been widely explored in periodic systems and it has been believed for a long time that the LJ formula only applies to periodic potentials. Recently we show that for the…

Let $\mu_t$ denote the critical derivative Gibbs measure of branching Brownian motion at time $t$. It has been proved by Madaule (Stochastic Process. Appl. 126 (2016), no. 2, 470--502) and Maillard and Zeitouni (Ann. Inst. Henri Poincar\'e…

There exist a large literature on the application of $q$-statistics to the out-of-equilibrium non-ergodic systems in which some degree of strong correlations exists. Here we study the distribution of first return times to zero, $P_R(0,t)$,…
