We investigate the escape behavior of systems governed by the one-dimensional nonlinear diffusion equation $\partial_t \rho = \partial_x[\partial_x U\rho] + D\partial^2_x \rho^\nu$, where the potential of the drift, $U(x)$, presents a…
We investigate dynamics of activated escape in periodically modulated systems. The trajectories followed in escape form diffusion broadened tubes, which are periodically repeated in time. We show that these tubes can be directly observed…
A particle with internal unobserved states diffusing in a force field will generally display effective advection-diffusion. The drift velocity is proportional to the mobility averaged over the internal states, or effective mobility, while…
A mass ejection model in a time-dependent random environment with both temporal and spatial correlations is introduced. When the environment has a finite correlation length, individual particle trajectories are found to diffuse at large…
When particles/molecules diffuse in systems that contain obstacles, the steady-state regime (during which the mean-square displacement scales linearly with time, $\left< r^2 \right> \sim t$) is preceded by a transient regime. It is common…
We use an effective Hamiltonian to characterize particle dynamics and find escape rates in a periodically kicked Hamiltonian. We study a model of particles in storage rings that is described by a chaotic symplectic map. Ignoring the…
We present an approximate analytical expression for the escape rate of time-dependent driven stochastic processes with an absorbing boundary such as the driven leaky integrate-and-fire model for neural spiking. The novel approximation is…

We investigate the long-term diffusion transport and chaos properties of single and coupled standard maps. We consider model parameters that are known to induce anomalous diffusion in the maps' phase spaces, as opposed to normal diffusion…
We formulate a scaling theory for the long-time diffusive motion in a space occluded by a high density of moving obstacles in dimensions 1, 2 and 3. Our tracers diffuse anomalously over many decades in time, before reaching a diffusive…
We study the trajectories followed by a particle subjected to weak noise when escaping from the domain of attraction of a stable fixed point. If detailed balance is absent, a _focus_ may occur along the most probable exit path, leading to a…
Collective diffusion coefficient in a two-dimensional lattice gas on a nonhomogeneous substrate is investigated using variational approach. Particles reside at adsorption sites with different well depths potentials and jump randomly between…
We study the stochastic motion of active particles that undergo spontaneous transitions between two distinct modes of motion. Each mode is characterized by a velocity distribution and an arbitrary (anti-)persistence. We present an…
We expand on a recent study of a lattice model of interacting particles [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 110601 (2013)]. The adsorption isotherm and equilibrium fluctuations in particle number are discussed as a function of the interaction. Their…
We study the transport properties of passive inertial particles in a $2-d$ incompressible flows. Here the particle dynamics is represented by the $4-d$ dissipative embedding map of $2-d$ area-preserving standard map which models the…
We investigate some statistical and transport properties of the relativistic standard map. Through the Hamiltonian of a wave packet under an electric potential, we are able to obtain a relativistic version of the standard map, where there…
The transport equation of active motion is generalised to consider time-fractional dynamics for describing the anomalous diffusion of self-propelled particles observed in many different systems. In the present study, we consider an…
The escape dynamics of sticky particles from textured surfaces is poorly understood despite importance to various scientific and technological domains. In this work, we address this challenge by investigating the escape time of adsorbates…
One or more small holes provide non-destructive windows to observe corresponding closed systems, for example by measuring long time escape rates of particles as a function of hole sizes and positions. To leading order the escape rate of…
