Let $(\{X_i(t)\}_{i\in \mathbb{Z}^d})_{t\geq 0}$ be the system of interacting diffusions on $[0,\infty)$ defined by the following collection of coupled stochastic differential equations: \begin{eqnarray}dX_i(t)=\sum\limits_{j\in…
Dynamical phase transitions in the relaxation behavior of stochastic quantum walks are investigated, focusing on systems where coherent unitary evolution is periodically interrupted by dephasing. This interplay leads to a classicalization…
We study a non-conserved one-dimensional stochastic process which involves two species of particles $A$ and $B$. The particles diffuse asymmetrically and react in pairs as $A\emptyset\leftrightarrow AA\leftrightarrow BA \leftrightarrow…
We study a model that generalizes the CP with diffusion. An additional transition is included in the model so that at a particular point of its phase diagram a crossover from the directed percolation to the compact directed percolation…
It is shown that the universal critical properties of two recently introduced coupled directed percolation processes can be described by a single rapidity reversal invariant stochastic reaction-diffusion model. It is demonstrated that all…
The percolation, Ising, and O($n$) models constitute fundamental systems in statistical and condensed matter physics. For short-range-interacting cases, the nature of their phase transitions is well established by renormalization-group…
Second-order phase transitions are characterised by critical scaling and universality. The singular behaviour of thermodynamic quantities at the transition, in particular, is determined by critical exponents of the universality class of the…
The pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD) has been recently investigated extensively, but its critical behavior is not yet clearly established. By introducing biased diffusion, we show that the external driving is relevant and the…
Nonequilibrium phase transitions between an active and an absorbing state are found in models of populations, epidemics, autocatalysis, and chemical reactions on a surface. While absorbing-state phase transitions fall generically in the DP…
We have calculated quantum reactive and elastic cross-sections for D$^{+}+$ para-H$_2$($v$=0, $j$=0) $\rightarrow$ H$^+$ + HD collisons using the hyperspherical quantum reactive scattering method [Chem. Phys. Lett. 1990,169, 473]. The…
It is known that diffusion provokes substantial changes in continuous absorbing phase transitions. Conversely, its effect on discontinuous transitions is much less understood. In order to shed light in this direction, we study the inclusion…
We study the single-species diffusion-annihilation process with a time-dependent reaction rate, lambda(t)=lambda_0 t^-omega. Scaling arguments show that there is a critical value of the decay exponent omega_c(d) separating a…
This work is devoted to examining qualitative properties of dynamic systems, in particular, limit cycles of stochastic differential equations with both rapid switching and small diffusion. The systems are featured by multi-scale…
Equilibrium phase transitions are associated with rearrangements of minima of a (Lagrangian) potential. Treatment of non-equilibrium systems requires doubling of degrees of freedom, which may be often interpreted as a transition from the…
The pair contact process (PCP) is a nonequilibrium stochastic model which, like the basic contact process (CP), exhibits a phase transition to an absorbing state. The two models belong to the directed percolation (DP) universality class,…
A one dimensional stochastic exclusion process with two species of particles, $+$ and $-$, is studied where density of each species can fluctuate but the total particle density is conserved. From the exact stationary state weights we show…
We generate point configurations (PCs) by thresholding the local energy of the Ashkin-Teller model in two dimensions (2D) and study the percolation transition at different values of $\lambda$ along the critical Baxter line by varying the…
We propose experimentally feasible ways to probe universal features of absorbing phase transitions from two different approaches, both based on numerical validations. On one hand, we numerically study a probability distribution of…
Subdiffusion in a system in which mobile particles $A$ can chemically react with static particles $B$ according to the rule $A+B\rightarrow B$ is considered within a persistent random walk model. This model, which assumes a correlation…
This thesis investigates critical phenomena and equilibrium states in various stochastic models through three interconnected studies. In the first chapter, we analyze the Activated Random Walk model on a one-dimensional ring in the…
