We study diffusion in systems of classical particles whose dynamics conserves the total center of mass. This conservation law leads to several interesting consequences. In finite systems, it allows for equilibrium distributions that are…
We investigate the motion of a tagged spin in a ferromagnetic Ising chain evolving under Kawasaki dynamics. At equilibrium, the displacement is Gaussian, with a variance growing as $A t^{1/2}$. The temperature dependence of the prefactor…
We introduce and study interval partition diffusions with Poisson--Dirichlet$(\alpha,\theta)$ stationary distribution for parameters $\alpha\in(0,1)$ and $\theta\ge 0$. This extends previous work on the cases $(\alpha,0)$ and…
The celebrated {\it fluctuation dissipation theorem} (FDT) does not apply to nonequilibrium systems. In this context, Cugliandolo and Kurchan [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 71}, 173 (1993)] introduced a generalized FDT which interprets the…
We study domain distributions in the one-dimensional Ising model subject to zero-temperature Glauber and Kawasaki dynamics. The survival probability of a domain, $S(t)\sim t^{-\psi}$, and an unreacted domain, $Q_1(t)\sim t^{-\delta}$, are…
We investigate the laws of coarsening of a two-dimensional system of Ising spins evolving under single-spin-flip irreversible dynamics at low temperature from a disordered initial condition. The irreversibility of the dynamics comes from…
We study the domain number and size distributions in the one-dimensional Ising and $q$-state Potts models subject to zero-temperature Glauber dynamics. The survival probability of a domain, $S(t)\sim t^{-\psi}$, and an unreacted domain,…
A key characteristic of the anomalous sub-solution equation is that the solution exhibits algebraic decay rate over long time intervals, which is often refered to the Mittag-Leffler type stability. For a class of power nonlinear…
The dynamics of dislocations can be formulated in terms of the evolution of continuous variables representing dislocation densities ('continuum dislocation dynamics'). We show for various variants of this approach that the resulting models…
We study numerically the Kawasaki dynamics of the 2d Ising model. At large time we recover the coarsening growth as l(t) ~ t^(1/3). At shorter time however, the system enters a metastable glassy regime that displays an extremely slow growth…
We study the Persistence properties of the T=0 coarsening dynamics of one dimensional $q$-state Potts model using a modified mean-field approximation (MMFA). In this approximation, the spatial correlations between the interfaces separating…
Constrained diffusions in convex polyhedral domains with a general oblique reflection field, and with a diffusion coefficient scaled by a small parameter, are considered. Using an interior Dirichlet heat kernel lower bound estimate for…
We report studies of the behaviour of a single driven domain wall in the 2-dimensional non-equilibrium zero temperature random-field Ising model, closely above the depinning threshold. It is found that even for very weak disorder, the…
Prolongating our previous paper on the Einstein relation, we study the motion of a particle diffusing in a random reversible environment when subject to a small external forcing. In order to describe the long time behavior of the particle,…
We introduce a parameter $p$, called partial survival, in the persistence of stochastic processes and show that for smooth processes the persistence exponent $\theta(p)$ changes continuously with $p$, $\theta(0)$ being the usual persistence…

We describe numerical simulations of the stochastic diffusion equation with a conserved charge. We focus on the dynamics in the vicinity of a critical point in the Ising universality class. The model we consider is expected to describe the…
We show that the dynamics of an Ising spin chain in a transverse field conserves the number of domains (strings of down spins in an up-spin background) at discrete times. This enables the determination of the eigenfunctions of the…
