We consider the overdamped motion of Brownian particles, interacting via particle exclusion, in an external potential that varies with time and space. We show that periodic potentials that maintain specific position-dependent phase…

In this note, we study the asymptotical frontier behavior of a branching reflected Brownian motion. There is essentially no difference in maximal displacement between a branching Brownian motion and its reflected counterpart. We provide two…

The logarithmic correction for the order of the maximum of a two-type reducible branching Brownian motion on the real line exhibits a double jump when the parameters (the ratio of the diffusion coefficients of the two types of particles,…

We show that in branching Brownian motion (BBM) in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$, the law of $R_t^*$, the maximum distance of a particle from the origin at time $t$, converges as $t\to\infty$ to the law of a randomly shifted Gumbel random…

We consider the long-time behaviour of binary branching Brownian motion (BBM) where the branching rate depends on a periodic spatial heterogeneity. We prove that almost surely as $t\to\infty$, the heterogeneous BBM at time $t$, normalized…

We introduce a system of Brownian particles, each absorbed upon hitting an associated moving boundary. The boundaries are determined by the conditional probabilities of the particles being absorbed before some final time horizon, given the…

In this paper we develop a probabilistic model of single-particle diffusion in 1D multi-layered media by constructing a multi-layered version of so-called snapping out Brownian motion (BM). The latter sews together successive rounds of…

We computationally study the behavior of underdamped active Brownian particles in a sheared channel geometry. Due to their underdamped dynamics, the particles carry momentum a characteristic distance away from the boundary before it is…

The $N$-particle branching Brownian motion ($N$-BBM) is a branching Markov process which describes the evolution of a population of particles undergoing reproduction and selection. It has attracted a lot of interest due to its relations to…

A particle moves randomly over the integer points of the real line. Jumps of the particle outside the membrane (a fixed "locally perturbating set") are i.i.d., have zero mean and finite variance, whereas jumps of the particle from the…

We analyze the rectified motion of a Brownian particle in a confined environment. We show the emergence of strong cooperativity between the inherent rectification of the ratchet mechanism and the entropic bias of the fluctuations caused by…
