We study far from equilibrium transport of a periodically driven inertial Brownian particle moving in a periodic potential. As detected recently for a SQUID ratchet dynamics (Spiechowicz J. & Luczka J. Phys. Rev. E 91, 062104 (2015)), the…

In this Letter, we clarify the physical origin of effective transport in periodic and tilted periodic systems. When Brownian dynamics is examined on the scale of a single period, the particle displacement admits a natural separation into a…

We study the effect of a resetting point randomly distributed around the origin on the mean first passage time of a Brownian searcher moving in one dimension. We compare the search efficiency with that corresponding to reset to the origin…

Bartussek, Hanggi and Kissner studied a rocking ratchet system, in which a Brownian particle is subject to an asymmetric periodic potential together with an oscillating force, and found that the direction of the macroscopic current can be…

This work puts forward a generalization of the well-known rocking Markovian Brownian ratchets to the realm of antipersistent non-Markovian subdiffusion in viscoelastic media. A periodically forced subdiffusion in a parity-broken ratchet…

A driven Brownian particle (e.g. an adatom on a surface) diffusing on a low-viscosity, periodic substrate may execute multiple jumps. In the presence of an additional periodic drive, the jump lengths and time durations become statistically…

In this work we develop and apply a path integral formulation for the microscopic degrees of freedom obeying stochastic differential equations to an active Brownian particle (ABP) trapped in a harmonic potential. The formalism allows to…

A flashing ratchet transports diffusive particles using a time-dependent, asymmetric potential. Particle speed is predicted to increase when a feedback algorithm based on particle positions is used. We have experimentally realized such a…

Transport phenomena in spatially periodic systems far from thermal equilibrium are considered. The main emphasize is put on directed transport in so-called Brownian motors (ratchets), i.e. a dissipative dynamics in the presence of thermal…
