We consider the quantum reaction-diffusion dynamics in $d$ spatial dimensions of a Fermi gas subject to binary annihilation reactions $A+A \to \emptyset$. These systems display collective nonequilibrium long-time behavior, which is…
In this paper, we study in details the critical behavior of the ${\cal O}(n)$ quantum $\phi^4$ model with long-range interaction decaying with the distances r by a power law as $r^{-d-\sigma}$ in the large n-limit. The zero-temperature…
The present review is devoted to the problems of finite-size scaling due to the presence of long-range interaction decaying at large distance as $1/r^{d+\sigma}$, where $d$ is the spatial dimension and the long-range parameter $\sigma>0$.…
We consider a diffusion-limited reaction in case the reacting entities are not available simultaneously. Due to the fact that the reaction takes place after a spatiotemporal accumulation of reactants, the underlying rate equation has to be…
The full hierarchy of multiple-point correlation functions for diffusion-limited annihilation, A + A -> 0, is obtained analytically and explicitly, following the method of intervals. In the long time asymptotic limit, the correlation…
We investigate the density decay in the pair-annihilation process A+A->0 in the case when the particles perform anomalous diffusion on a cubic lattice. The anomalous diffusion is realized via L\'evy flights, which are characterized by…
We address the two-dimensional bimolecular annihilation reaction $A + A \to \emptyset$ in the presence of random impurities. Impurities with sufficiently long-ranged interaction energies are known to lead to anomalous diffusion, $<r^2(t)>…
We investigate the quantum reaction-diffusion dynamics of fermionic particles which coherently hop in a one-dimensional lattice and undergo annihilation reactions. The latter are modelled as dissipative processes which involve losses of…
We look for similarity transformations which yield mappings between different one-dimensional reaction-diffusion processes. In this way results obtained for special systems can be generalized to equivalent reaction-diffusion models. The…
We examine the long time behaviour of A+B->0 reaction diffusion systems with initially segregated species A and B. All of our analysis is carried out for arbitrary (positive) values of the diffusion constants $D_A$, $D_B$, and initial…
Diffusion-limited reaction A+A->inert with anisotropic hopping on the d=1 lattice, is solved exactly for a simultaneous updating, discrete time-step dynamics. Diffusion-dominated processes slow down as the anisotropy increases. For large…
Two-point density-density correlation functions for the diffusive binary reaction system $A+A\to\emptyset$ are obtained in one dimension via Monte Carlo simulation. The long-time behavior of these correlation functions clearly deviates from…
We study the pairwise annihilation process $A+A\to$ inert of a number of random walkers, which originally are localized in a small region in space. The size of the colony and the typical distance between particles increases with time and,…
Using the perturbative renormalization group, we study the influence of a random velocity field on the kinetics of the single-species annihilation reaction A+A->0 at and below its critical dimension d_c=2. We use the second-quantization…
In this article we review the problem of reaction annihilation $A+A \rightarrow \emptyset$ on a real lattice in one dimension, where $A$ particles move ballistically in one direction with a discrete set of possible velocities. We first…
Many systems that can be described in terms of diffusion-limited `chemical' reactions display non-equilibrium continuous transitions separating active from inactive, absorbing states, where stochastic fluctuations cease entirely. Their…
We present results from computer simulations for diffusion-limited $n$-species annihilation, $A_i+A_j\to0$ $(i,j=1,2,...,n;i\neq j)$, on the line, for lattices of up to $2^{28}$ sites, and where the process proceeds to completion (no…
We study the kinetics of diffusion-limited coalescence, A+A->A, and annihilation, A+A->0, in random media consisting of disconnected domains of reaction. Examples include excitons fusion and annihilation in porous matrices and along polymer…
We study diffusion-limited (on-site) pair annihilation $A+A\to 0$ and (on-site) fusion $A+A\to A$ which we show to be equivalent for arbitrary space-dependent diffusion and reaction rates. For one-dimensional lattices with nearest neighbour…
We consider the reaction zone that grows between separated regions of diffusing species $A$ and $B$ that react according to $mA+nB\to 0$, within the framework of the mean-fieldlike reaction-diffusion equations. For distances from the centre…
