We investigate random searches under stochastic position resetting at rate $r$, in a bounded 1D environment with space-dependent diffusivity $D(x)$. For arbitrary shapes of $D(x)$ and prescriptions of the associated multiplicative…

What happens when a continuously evolving stochastic process is interrupted with large changes at random intervals $\tau$ distributed as a power-law $\sim \tau^{-(1+\alpha)};\alpha>0$? Modeling the stochastic process by diffusion and the…

In this paper we consider diffusion in a domain $\Omega$ containing a partially absorbing target $\calM$ with position and occupation time resetting. The occupation time $A_t$ is a Brownian functional that determines the amount of time that…

Stochastic resetting has been a subject of considerable interest within statistical physics, both as means of improving completion times of complex processes such as searches and as a paradigm for generating nonequilibrium stationary…

We address the effect of stochastic resetting on diffusion and subdiffusion process. For diffusion we find that MSD relaxes to a constant only when the distribution of reset times possess finite mean and variance. In this case, the leading…

We study the non-equilibrium steady states and first passage properties of a Brownian particle with position $X$ subject to an external confining potential of the form $V(X)=\mu|X|$, and that is switched on and off stochastically. Applying…

Resetting is a renewal mechanism in which a process is intermittently repeated after a random or fixed time. This simple act of stop and repeat profoundly influences the behaviour of a system as exemplified by the emergence of…

We consider a particle undergoing run and tumble dynamics, in which its velocity stochastically reverses, in one dimension. We study the addition of a Poissonian resetting process occurring with rate $r$. At a reset event the particle's…

Recent studies in one dimension have revealed that the temporal advantage rendered by stochastic resetting to diffusing particles in attaining first passage, may be annulled by a sufficiently strong attractive potential. We extend the…

We look into the problem of stochastic resetting with refractory periods. The model dynamics comprises diffusive and motionless phases. The diffusive phase ends at random time instants, at which the system is reset to a given position --…

Stochastic resetting is prevalent in natural and man-made systems giving rise to a long series of non-equilibrium phenomena. Diffusion with stochastic resetting serves as a paradigmatic model to study these phenomena, but the lack of a…

We propose a generalization of the stochastic resetting mechanism for a Brownian particle diffusing in a one-dimensional periodic potential: randomly in time, the particle gets reset at the bottom of the potential well it was in. Numerical…
