We consider the contact process on a random graph with fixed degree distribution given by a power law. We follow the work of Chatterjee and Durrett, who showed that for arbitrarily small infection parameter $\lambda$, the survival time of…
We consider two independent identical diffusion processes that annihilate upon meeting in order to study their conditioning with respect to their first-encounter properties. For the case of finite horizon $T<+\infty$, the maximum…
We study the long-time tails of the survival probability $P(t)$ of an $A$ particle diffusing in $d$-dimensional media in the presence of a concentration $\rho$ of traps $B$ that move sub-diffusively, such that the mean square displacement…
In this paper we study the motion of two particles diffusing on low-dimensional discrete structures in presence of a hard-core repulsive interaction. We show that the problem can be mapped in two decoupled problems of single particles…
Particle approximations for certain nonlinear and nonlocal reaction-diffusion equations are studied using a system of Brownian motions with killing. The system is described by a collection of i.i.d. Brownian particles where each particle is…
We study analytically the order and gap statistics of particles at time $t$ for the one dimensional branching Brownian motion, conditioned to have a fixed number of particles at $t$. The dynamics of the process proceeds in continuous time…
We consider a finite or countable collection of one-dimensional Brownian particles whose dynamics at any point in time is determined by their rank in the entire particle system. Using Transportation Cost Inequalities for stochastic…
We consider a single species reaction diffusion system on a two dimensional lattice where the particles $A$ are biased to move towards their nearest neighbours and annihilate as they meet; $A + A \to \emptyset$. Allowing the bias to take…
It is shown here that in a flat, cold dark matter (CDM) dominated Universe with positive cosmological constant ($\Lambda$), modelled in terms of a Newtonian and collisionless fluid, particle trajectories are analytical in time…
Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld developed their theory of self-organized criticality in the late 1980s to explain why many real-life processes exhibit signs of critical behavior despite the absence of a tuning parameter. A decade later, Dickman,…
Using gamma-ray data from observations of the Milky Way, Andromeda (M31), and the cosmic background, we calculate conservative upper limits on the dark matter self-annihilation cross section to a number of final states, over a wide range of…
We study a stochastic particle system which models the time evolution of the ranking of books by online bookstores (e.g., Amazon). In this system, particles are lined in a queue. Each particle jumps at random jump times to the top of the…
In the asymmetric simple exclusion process on the integers each particle waits exponential time, then with probability p it moves one step to the right if the site is unoccupied, otherwise it stays put; and with probability q=1-p it moves…
We consider the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) starting with a shock discontinuity at the origin, with asymptotic densities $\lambda$ to the left of the origin and $\rho$ to the right of it and $\lambda<\rho$. We find…
We investigate a one-dimensional system of $N$ particles, initially distributed with random positions and velocities, interacting through binary collisions. The collision rule is such that there is a time after which the $N$ particles do…
We consider a run-and-tumble particle on a finite interval $[a,b]$ with two absorbing end points. The particle has an internal velocity state that switches between three values $v,0,-v$ at exponential times, thus incorporating positive…

We investigate anomalous diffusion processes governed by the fractional Langevin equation and confined to a finite or semi-infinite interval by reflecting potential barriers. As the random and damping forces in the fractional Langevin…
Two classes of interacting particle systems on $\mathbb{Z}$ are shown to be Pfaffian point processes at fixed times, and for all deterministic initial conditions. The first comprises coalescing and branching random walks, the second…
We study the dynamics of a tracer particle (TP) on a comb lattice populated by randomly moving hard-core particles in the dense limit. We first consider the case where the TP is constrained to move on the backbone of the comb only, and, in…
