Diffusion processes arise in many fields, and so simulating the path of a diffusion is an important problem. It is usually necessary to make some sort of approximation via model-discretization, but a recently introduced class of algorithms,…
A system of particles hopping on a line, singly or as merged pairs, and annihilating in groups of three on encounters, is solved exactly for certain symmetrical initial conditions. The functional form of the density is nearly identical to…
We study a pure death process. At each discrete time every individual dies or not independently of each other with a constant probability. We give examples showing that in a certain limit extinction happens along a path where one and only…
Some models of diffusion-limited reaction processes in one dimension lend themselves to exact analysis. The known approaches yield exact expressions for a limited number of quantities of interest, such as the particle concentration, or the…
We consider the diffusion-controlled annihilation dynamics $A+B\to 0$ with equal species diffusivities in the system where an island of particles $A$ is surrounded by the uniform sea of particles $B$. We show that once the initial number of…

The Bethe Ansatz provides exact solutions for certain interacting quantum many-body systems, yet its success is confined to narrow regimes and breaks down abruptly outside them. Despite extensive developments in integrable systems, a…

Recently it has been shown that the transition of the 1+1-dimensional annihilation-fission process 2X->3X, 2X->0 exhibits an unusual type of nonequilibrium critical behavior. The phenomenological properties of critical clusters are…
We provide, in a general setting, explicit solutions for optimal stopping problems that involve a diffusion process and its running maximum. Besides, a new feature includes absorbing boundaries that vary with the value of the running…
The chaotic diffusion for a family of Hamiltonian mappings whose angles diverge in the limit of vanishingly action is investigated by using the solution of the diffusion equation. The system is described by a two-dimensional mapping for the…
We consider a process in which there are two types of particles, A and B, on an infinite one-dimensional lattice. The particles hop to their adjacent sites, like the totally asymmetric exclusion process (ASEP), and have also the following…
We consider the coagulation dynamics A+A -> A and the annihilation dynamics A+A -> 0 for particles moving subdiffusively in one dimension, both on a lattice and in a continuum. The analysis combines the "anomalous kinetics" and "anomalous…
Annihilation processes, where the reacting particles are influenced by some external advective field, are one of the simplest examples of nonlinear statistical systems. This type of processes can be observed in miscellaneous chemical,…
We investigate the existence and uniqueness of strong solutions up to an explosion time for regime-switching diffusion processes in an infinite state space. Instead of concrete conditions on coefficients, our existence and uniqueness result…
