Stochastic mass transport models are usually described by specifying hopping rates of particles between sites of a given lattice, and the goal is to predict the existence and properties of the steady state. Here we ask the reverse question:…

Metastability of a particle trapped in a well with a time-periodically oscillating barrier is studied in the Floquet formalism. It is shown that the oscillating barrier causes the system to decay faster in general. However, avoided…
When a Brownian particle, initially being in the potential well, overcomes the barrier and moves to the absorptive border, it still has a chance to be scattered back to the well by thermal fluctuations. We study this phenomenon carefully…
