We consider the problem of the first passage time to the origin of a spatially non-homogeneous random walk with a position-dependent drift, known as the Gillis random walk, in the presence of resetting. The walk starts from an initial site…

We study the biased random walk process in random uncorrelated networks with arbitrary degree distributions. In our model, the bias is defined by the preferential transition probability, which, in recent years, has been commonly used to…
Many natural and artificial networks evolve in time. Nodes and connections appear and disappear at various timescales, and their dynamics has profound consequences for any processes in which they are involved. The first empirical analysis…

As known, the commonly-utilized ways to determine mean first-passage time $\overline{\mathcal{F}}$ for random walk on networks are mainly based on Laplacian spectra. However, methods of this type can become prohibitively complicated and…
The self-avoiding random walk (SARW) is a stochastic process whose state variable avoids returning to previously visited states. This non-Markovian feature has turned SARWs a powerful tool for modelling a plethora of relevant aspects in…

Extensive empirical investigation has shown that a plethora of real networks synchronously exhibit scale-free and modular structure, and it is thus of great importance to uncover the effects of these two striking properties on various…
Virtually all real-world networks are dynamical entities. In social networks, the propensity of nodes to engage in social interactions (activity) and their chances to be selected by active nodes (attractiveness) are heterogeneously…
