Nonergodicity observed in single-particle tracking experiments is usually modeled by transient trapping rather than spatial disorder. We introduce models of a particle diffusing in a medium consisting of regions with random sizes and random…
In [AJM26], we gave large-time asymptotic bounds on the annealed survival probability of a moving polymer taking values in ${\mathbb R}^d, d \geq 1$. This polymer is a solution of a stochastic heat equation driven by additive spacetime…
We consider one-dimensional discrete-time random walks (RWs) in the presence of finite size traps of length $\ell$ over which the RWs can jump. We study the survival probability of such RWs when the traps are periodically distributed and…
We investigate the motion of a run-and-tumble particle (RTP) in one dimension. We find the exact probability distribution of the particle with and without diffusion on the infinite line, as well as in a finite interval. In the infinite…

We study first-passage properties for a particle that diffuses either inside or outside of generalized paraboloids, defined by y=a(x_1^2+...+x_{d-1}^2)^{p/2} where p>1, with absorbing boundaries. When the particle is inside the paraboloid,…

The lateral diffusion coefficient of a Brownian particle on a two-dimensional random surface is studied in the quenched limit for which the surface configuration is time-independent. We start with the stochastic equation of motion for a…
We study a diffusion approximation for a model of stochastic motion of a particle in one spatial dimension. The velocity of the particle is constant but the direction of the motion undergoes random changes with a Poisson clock. Moreover,…
We study the probability of two Brownian particles to meet before one of them exits a finite interval. We obtain an explicit expression for the probability as a function of the initial distance of the two particles using the Weierstrass…
In this paper we consider a multiparticle version of a recent probabilistic framework for studying diffusion-mediated surface reactions. The basic idea of the probabilistic approach is to consider the joint probability density or…
The connection between absorbing boundary conditions and hard walls is well established in the mathematical literature for a variety of stochastic models, including for instance the Brownian motion. In this paper we explore this duality for…
The present work investigates the asymptotic behaviors, at the zero-noise limit, of the first collision-time and first collision-location related to a pair of self-stabilizing diffusions and of their related particle approximations. These…
We study a one-dimensional diffusion process in a drifted Brownian potential. We characterize the upper functions of its hitting times in the sense of Paul L\'evy, and determine the lower limits in terms of an iterated logarithm law.
The problem is a power-law asymptotics of the probability that a self-similar process does not exceed a fixed level during long time. The exponent in such asymptotics is estimated for some Gaussian processes, including the fractional…
