A space fractional diffusion-like equation is introduced, which embodies the nonlocality in time, represented by the memory kernel and the non-locality in space. A specific example of the nonlocal term is considered in combination with…

Stochastic resetting models diverse phenomena across numerous scientific disciplines. Current understanding stems from the renewal framework, which relates systems subject to global resetting to their non-resetting counterparts. Yet, in…

Consider a finite system of diffusing particles coupled through a reactive boundary. Each particle is reflected, but may react with the boundary according to a killing mechanism which depends on the current reactivity of the boundary and…
