We investigated the unbounded diffusion observed in a time-dependent oval-shaped billiard and its suppression owing to inelastic collisions with the boundary. The main focus is on the behavior of the diffusion coefficient, which plays a key…
Charge and energy are expected to diffuse in interacting systems of fermions at finite temperatures, even in the absence of disorder, with the interactions inducing a crossover from the coherent and ballistic streaming of quasi-particles at…
Phase transitions of the 2A-> 3A, 4A->0 reaction-diffusion model is explored by dynamical, N-cluster approximations and by simulations.The model exhibits site occupation restriction and explicit diffusion of isolated particles. While the…
Random multiplicative processes $w_t =\lambda_1 \lambda_2 ... \lambda_t$ (with < \lambda_j > 0 ) lead, in the presence of a boundary constraint, to a distribution $P(w_t)$ in the form of a power law $w_t^{-(1+\mu)}$. We provide a simple and…
We study a conserved mass aggregation model with mass-dependent fragmentation in one dimension. In the model, the whole mass $m$ of a site isotropically diffuse with unit rate. With rate $\omega$, a mass $m^{\lambda}$ is fragmented from the…
Cylindrical lattice Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA), with a narrow width N, is solved using a Markovian matrix method. This matrix contains the probabilities that the front moves from one configuration to another at each growth step,…
We present a robust method which translates information on the speed of coming down from infinity of a genealogical tree into sampling formulae for the underlying population. We apply these results to population dynamics where the genealogy…
We present a modified diffusive epidemic process that has a finite threshold on scale-free graphs. The diffusive epidemic process describes the epidemic spreading in a non-sedentary population, and it is a reaction-diffusion process. In the…
The macroscopic behaviour of foams is deeply related to rearrangements occurring at the bubble scale, which dynamics depends on the mobility of the interstitial phase. In this paper, we resort to drainage experiments to quantify this…
Consider growing a network, in which every new connection is made between two disconnected nodes. At least one node is chosen randomly from a subset consisting of $g$ fraction of the entire population in the smallest clusters. Here we show…
We describe a universal transition mechanism characterizing the passage to an annealed behavior and to a regime where the fluctuations about this behavior are Gaussian, for the long time asymptotics of the empirical average of the expected…
We recently demonstrated that standard fixed-time lattice random-walk models cannot be modified to properly represent biased diffusion processes in more than two dimensions. The origin of this fundamental limitation appears to be the fact…
Using high precision Monte Carlo simulations and a mean-field theory, we explore coarsening phenomena in a simple driven diffusive system. The model is reminiscent of vehicular traffic on a two-lane ring road. At sufficiently high density,…
In this paper we study a parametric class of stochastic processes to model both fast and slow anomalous diffusion. This class, called generalized grey Brownian motion (ggBm), is made up off self-similar with stationary increments processes…
Several low-dimensional systems show a crossover from diffusive to ballistic heat transport when system size is decreased. Although there is some phenomenological understanding of this crossover phenomena in the coarse grained level, a…
We consider a continuum percolation model on $\R^d$, $d\geq 1$.For $t,\lambda\in (0,\infty)$ and $d\in\{1,2,3\}$, the occupied set is given by the union of independent Brownian paths running up to time $t$ whoseinitial points form a Poisson…
Diffusion-driven flow is a boundary layer flow arising from the interplay of gravity and diffusion in density-stratified fluids when a gravitational field is non-parallel to an impermeable solid boundary. This study investigates…
When particles/molecules diffuse in systems that contain obstacles, the steady-state regime (during which the mean-square displacement scales linearly with time, $\left< r^2 \right> \sim t$) is preceded by a transient regime. It is common…
In the classical model of Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA), introduced by Witten and Sander, the process begins with a single particle cluster placed at the origin of a space, and then, one at a time, particles make a random walk from…
In recent years, several experiments highlighted a new type of diffusion anomaly, which was called Brownian yet non-Gaussian diffusion. In systems displaying this behavior, the mean squared displacement of the diffusing particles grows…
