The cohesive collective motion (flocking, swarming) of autonomous agents is ubiquitously observed and exploited in both natural and man-made settings, thus, minimal models for its description are essential. In a model with continuous space…

We describe the translation invariant stationary states (TIS) of the one-dimensional facilitated asymmetric exclusion process in continuous time, in which a particle at site $i\in\mathbb{Z}$ jumps to site $i+1$ (respectively $i-1$) with…

We investigate a three-dimensional kinetically-constrained model that exhibits two types of phase transitions at different densities. At the jamming density $ \rho_J $ there is a mixed-order phase transition in which a finite fraction of…

In this paper we consider three classes of interacting particle systems on $\mathbb Z$: independent random walks, the exclusion process, and the inclusion process. We allow particles to switch their jump rate (the rate identifies the type…

We consider two models of deterministic active particles in an external potential. In the limit where the speed of a particle is fixed, both models coincide and can be formulated as a Hamiltonian system, but only if the potential is…

For systems out of equilibrium and subjected to a static bias force it can often be expected that particle transport will usually follow the direction of this bias. However, counter-examples exist where particles exhibit uphill motion…

We study the behavior of a quantum particle trapped in a confining potential in one dimension under multiple sudden changes of velocity and/or acceleration. We develop the appropriate formalism to deal with such situation and we use it to…
