In many physical situations, there appears the problem of reaching a single target that is spatially distributed. Here we analyse how stochastic resetting, also spatially distributed, can be used to improve the search process when the…
We determine the full distribution and moments of the first passage time for a wide class of stochastic search processes in the limit of frequent stochastic resetting. Our results apply to any system whose short-time behavior of the search…
We study simple diffusion where a particle stochastically resets to its initial position at a constant rate r. A finite resetting rate leads to a nonequilibrium stationary state with non-Gaussian fluctuations for the particle position. We…
Restarting a stochastic search process can accelerate its completion by providing an opportunity to take a more favorable path with each reset. This strategy, known as stochastic resetting, is well studied in random processes. Here, we…
By periodically returning a search process to a known or random state, random resetting possesses the potential to unveil new trajectories, sidestep potential obstacles, and consequently enhance the efficiency of locating desired targets.…
We consider diffusion under stochastic resetting to the origin in one dimension and compute the mean time to find both of two targets placed either side of the origin. A surprising result is that increasing the distance between two targets…
The mean completion time of a stochastic process may be rendered finite and minimised by a judiciously chosen restart protocol, which may either be stochastic or deterministic. Here we study analytically an arbitrary stochastic search…
Brownian diffusion subject to stochastic resetting to a fixed position has been widely studied for applications to random search processes. In an unbounded domain, the mean first-passage time at a target site can be minimized for a…
Stochastic resetting has emerged as a useful strategy to reduce the completion time for a broad class of first passage processes. In the canonical setup, one intermittently resets a given system to its initial configuration only to start…
The effects of Poissonian resetting at a constant rate $r$ on the reaction time between a Brownian particle and a stochastically gated target are studied. The target switches between a reactive state and a non-reactive one. We calculate the…
In this Topical Review we consider stochastic processes under resetting, which have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. We begin with the simple example of a diffusive particle whose position is reset randomly in time with a…
We consider the mean time to absorption by an absorbing target of a diffusive particle with the addition of a process whereby the particle is reset to its initial position with rate $r$. We consider several generalisations of the model of…
Stochastic resetting, a diffusive process whose amplitude is "reset" to the origin at random times, is a vividly studied strategy to optimize encounter dynamics, e.g., in chemical reactions. We here generalize the resetting step by…
Stochastic resetting, where a dynamical process is intermittently returned to a fixed reference state, has emerged as a powerful mechanism for optimizing first-passage properties. Existing theory largely treats static, non-learning…
Resetting or restart, when applied to a stochastic process, usually brings its dynamics to a time-independent stationary state. In turn, the optimal resetting rate makes the mean time to reach a target to be the shortest one. These and…
Restart is a general framework, of prime importance and wide applicability, for expediting first-passage times and completion times of general stochastic processes. Restart protocols can use either deterministic or stochastic timers.…
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 --…
We investigate a stochastic search process in one, two, and three dimensions in which $N$ diffusing searchers that all start at $x_0$ seek a target at the origin. Each of the searchers is also reset to its starting point, either with rate…
A new model of search based on stochastic resetting is introduced, wherein rate of resets depends explicitly on time elapsed since the beginning of the process. It is shown that rate inversely proportional to time leads to paradoxical…
Stochastic resetting, the procedure of stopping and re-initializing random processes, has recently emerged as a powerful tool for accelerating processes ranging from queuing systems to molecular simulations. However, its usefulness is…
