We derive a functional equation for the mean first-passage time (MFPT) of a generic self-similar Markovian continuous process to a target in a one-dimensional domain and obtain its exact solution. We show that the obtained expression of the…
We study the rate of convergence of two discrete processes towards the Brownian bridge: the random walk conditioned to be zero at time 2n and the empirical process which appears in the Glivencko-Cantelli theorem. Combining a functional…
The problem of drift estimation for the solution $X$ of a stochastic differential equation with L\'evy-type jumps is considered under discrete high-frequency observations with a growing observation window. An efficient and asymptotically…
In this paper, we propose a general framework for the trapping problem on a weighted network with a perfect trap fixed at an arbitrary node. By utilizing the spectral graph theory, we provide an exact formula for mean first-passage time…
We study the convex hull of the first $n$ steps of a planar random walk, and present large-$n$ asymptotic results on its perimeter length $L_n$, diameter $D_n$, and shape. In the case where the walk has a non-zero mean drift, we show that…
We consider diffusive motion of a particle performing a random walk with L\'evy distributed jump lengths and subject to resetting mechanism bringing the walker to an initial position at uniformly distributed times. In the limit of infinite…
We perform a thorough analysis of the survival probability of symmetric random walks with stochastic resetting, defined as the probability for the walker not to cross the origin up to time $n$. For continuous symmetric distributions of step…
We study first-passage statistics for one-dimensional random walks $S_n$ with independent and identically distributed jumps starting from the origin. We focus on the joint distribution of the first-passage time $\tau_b$ and first-passage…
We study the entropy of the distribution of the set R_n of vertices visited by a simple random walk on a graph with bounded degrees in its first n steps. It is shown that this quantity grows linearly in the expected size of R_n if the graph…

The distribution of the first positive position reached by a random walker starting from the origin is fundamental for understanding the statistics of extremes and records in one-dimensional random walks. We present a comprehensive study of…
We present an analytical approach to study simple symmetric random walks (RWs) on a crossing geometry consisting of a plane square lattice crossed by $n_l$ number of lines that all meet each other at a single point (the origin) on the…
Anomalous random walks having long-range jumps are a critical branch of dynamical processes on networks, which can model a number of search and transport processes. However, traditional measurements based on mean first passage time are not…
We consider a random walk $Y$ moving on a L\'evy random medium, namely a one-dimensional renewal point process with inter-distances between points that are in the domain of attraction of a stable law. The focus is on the characterization of…
Continuous time random walks combining diffusive and ballistic regimes are introduced to describe a class of L\'evy walks on lattices. By including exponentially-distributed waiting times separating the successive jump events of a walker,…
Anomalous (or non-Fickian) diffusion has been widely found in fluid reactive transport and the traditional advection diffusion reaction equation based on Fickian diffusion is proved to be inadequate to predict this anomalous transport of…
We study the distribution of the supremum of the Airy process with $m$ wanderers minus a parabola, or equivalently the limit of the rescaled maximal height of a system of $N$ non-intersecting Brownian bridges as $N\to\infty$, where the…
We study Markovian continuous-time random walk models for L\'evy flights and we show an example in which the convergence to stable densities is not guaranteed when jumps follow a bi-modal power-law distribution that is equal to zero in…
We present analytical results for the distribution of first-passage (FP) times of random walks (RWs) on random regular graphs that consist of $N$ nodes of degree $c \ge 3$. Starting from a random initial node at time $t=0$, at each time…
We study the asymptotic behavior of ``true" self-avoiding random walks on general infinite locally finite trees. In this model, the walk starts at the root and, at each step, from its current vertex chooses a neighboring edge to traverse…
