We prove that the probability the frog model with death and drift on the $d$-ary tree is recurrent can be made positive and thus is not monotone in the drift parameter.

We study the frog model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with drift in dimension $d \geq 2$ and establish the existence of transient and recurrent regimes depending on the transition probabilities. We focus on a model in which the particles perform…

We consider a system of interacting random walks known as the frog model. Let $\mathcal{K}_n=(\mathcal{V}_n,\mathcal{E}_n)$ be the complete graph with $n$ vertices and $o\in\mathcal{V}_n$ be a special vertex called the root. Initially,…

A two-type version of the frog model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is formulated, where active type $i$ particles move according to lazy random walks with probability $p_i$ of jumping in each time step ($i=1,2$). Each site is independently assigned a…

The frog model with a Bernoulli initial configuration is an interacting particle system on the $d$-dimensional lattice ($d \geq 2$) with two types of particles: active and sleeping. Active particles perform independent simple random walks.…

We consider the continuous-time frog model on $\mathbb{Z}$. At time $t = 0$, there are $\eta (x)$ particles at $x\in \mathbb{Z}$, each of which is represented by a random variable. In particular, $(\eta(x))_{x \in \mathbb{Z} }$ is a…

We study a simple model of a diffusing particle (the prey) that on encounter with one of a swarm of diffusing predators can either perish or be reset to its original position at the origin. We show that the survival probability of the prey…

The frog model is a branching random walk on a graph in which particles branch only at unvisited sites. Consider an initial particle density of $\mu$ on the full $d$-ary tree of height $n$. If $\mu= \Omega( d^2)$, all of the vertices are…
