In this paper, we are interested in the speed of convergence of the stochastic billiard evolving in a convex set K. This process can be described as follows: a particle moves at unit speed inside the set K until it hits the boundary, and is…

We consider stochastic processes, S^t \equiv (S_x^t : x \in Z^d), with each S_x^t taking values in some fixed finite set, in which spin flips (i.e., changes of S_x^t) do not raise the energy. We extend earlier results of Nanda-Newman-Stein…
The dynamics of a point charged particle which is driven by a uniform external electric field and moves in a medium of elastic scatterers is investigated. Using rudimentary approaches, we reproduce, in one dimension, the known results that…
