We study the mean first passage time of a one-dimensional random walker with step sizes decaying exponentially in discrete time. That is step sizes go like $\lambda^{n}$ with $\lambda\leq1$ . We also present, for pedagogical purposes, a…
The activated rate process for non-equilibrium open systems is studied taking into account both internal and external noise fluctuations in a unified way. The probability of a particle diffusing passing over the saddle point and the rate…
We study the mean first passage time of a one-dimensional active fluctuating membrane that is stochastically returned to the same flat initial condition at a finite rate. We start with a Fokker Planck equation to describe the evolution of…
Different from the conventional Rydberg antiblockade (RAB) regime that either requires weak Rydberg-Rydberg interaction (RRI), or compensates Rydberg-Rydberg interaction (RRI)-induced energy shift by introducing dispersive interactions, we…
We study the time until first occurrence, the first-passage time, of rare density fluctuations in diffusive systems. We approach the problem using a model consisting of many independent random walkers on a lattice. The existence of spatial…

The early stages of dynamical evolution of planetary systems are often shaped by dissipative processes that drive orbital migration. In multi-planet systems, convergent amassing of orbits inevitably leads to encounters with rational period…

We consider a forced oscillation and passage through resonance for an infinite-length system, having time-varying parameters and possessing a single trapped mode. The system is a string, lying on the Winkler foundation and equipped with a…
Combined action of noise and deterministic force in dynamical systems can induce resonant effects. Here, we demonstrate a minimal, deterministic-force-free, setup allowing for occurrence of resonant, noise induced effects. We show that in…
We consider the long-time behavior of systems close to a system with a smooth first integral. Under certain assumptions, the limiting behavior, to some extent, turns out to be universal: it is determined by the first integral, the…
Resonance trapping appears in open many-particle quantum systems at high level density when the coupling to the continuum of decay channels reaches a critical strength. Here a reorganization of the system takes place and a separation of…
Extensive empirical investigation has shown that a plethora of real networks synchronously exhibit scale-free and modular structure, and it is thus of great importance to uncover the effects of these two striking properties on various…
The mean first-passage time (MFPT) is one standard measure for the reaction time in thermally activated barrier-crossing processes. While the relationship between MFPTs and phenomenological rate coefficients is known for systems that…
The overdamped motion of a Brownian particle in randomly switching piece-wise metastable linear potential shows noise enhanced stability (NES): the noise stabilizes the metastable system and the system remains in this state for a longer…
