In heterogeneous environments, the diffusivity is not constant but changes with time. It is important to detect changes in the diffusivity from single-particle-tracking trajectories in experiments. Here, we devise a novel method for…
Single-file diffusion (SFD) of an infinite one-dimensional chain of interacting particles has a long-time mean-square displacement (MSD) ~t^1/2, independent of the type of inter-particle repulsive interaction. This behavior is also observed…
The dynamics of a tracer particle in a glassy matrix of obstacles displays slow complex transport as the free volume approaches a critical value and the void space falls apart. We investigate the emerging subdiffusive motion of the test…
The problem of a particle diffusion in a fluctuating scalar field is studied. In contrast to most studies of advection diffusion in random fields we analyze the case where the particle position is also coupled to the dynamics of the field.…

The spatially homogeneous Vlasov-Nordstr\"{o}m-Fokker-Planck system is known to exhibit nontrivial large time behavior, naturally leading to weak diffusion of the Fokker-Planck operator. This weak diffusion, combined with the singularity of…
Many natural and industrial systems involve particle-laden interfaces. Because interfacial particles prevent the coalescence and coarsening of drops, they hold promise for various applications requiring stable emulsions. Despite their…
