We study the steady state of diffusion-limited coalescence, A+A<-->A, in the presence of a trap and with a background drift. In one dimension this model can be analyzed exactly through the method of inter-particle distribution functions…
We study diffusion-limited coalescence, A+A<-->A, in one dimension, in the presence of a diffusing trap. The system may be regarded as a generalization of von Smoluchowski's model for reaction rates, in that: (a) it includes reactions…
We study the diffusion-limited process $A+A\to A$ in one dimension, with finite reaction rates. We develop an approximation scheme based on the method of Inter-Particle Distribution Functions (IPDF), which was formerly used for the exact…

We consider the trapping reaction A + B -> B in space dimension d<=2. By formally eliminating the B particles from the problem we derive an effective dynamics for the A particles from which the survival probability of a given A particle and…
We study the kinetics of diffusion-limited coalescence, A+A-->A, and annihilation, A+A-->0, in the Bethe lattice of coordination number z. Correlations build up over time so that the probability to find a particle next to another varies…
We study the 1D kinetics of diffusion-limited coalescence and annihilation with back reactions and different kinds of particle input. By considering the changes in occupation and parity of a given interval, we derive sets of hierarchical…
We calculate the survival probability of an immobile target surrounded by a sea of uncorrelated diffusive or subdiffusive evanescent traps, i.e., traps that disappear in the course of their motion. Our calculation is based on a fractional…
In this article, we carry out a study of long-term behavior of reaction-diffusion systems augmented with self- and cross-diffusion, using an augmented Gray-Scott system as a general example. The methodology remains generic, and is therefore…
In a recent Letter Bray and Blythe have shown that the survival probability P(t) of an A particle diffusing with a diffusion coefficient D_A in a 1D system with diffusive traps B is independent of D_A in the asymptotic limit t \to \infty…
A new method is introduced allowing to solve exactly the reactions A+A->inert and A+A->A on the 1D lattice with synchronous diffusional dynamics (simultaneous hopping of all particles). Exact connections are found relating densities and…

We find an exact series solution for the steady-state probability distribution of a harmonically trapped active Brownian particle in two dimensions, in the presence of translational diffusion. This series solution allows us to efficiently…
We analyze a trapping reaction with a single penetrable trap, in a one dimensional lattice, where both species (particles and trap) are mobile and have a drift velocity. We obtain the density as seen from a reference system attached to the…
We present a mean field model for coagulation ($A+A\to A$) and annihilation ($A+A\to 0$) reactions on lattices of traps with a distribution of depths reflected in a distribution of mean escape times. The escape time from each trap is…

We have previously discussed the one-dimensional multitrap system of finite range and found the somewhat unexpected result that the larger is the number of imperfect traps the higher is the transmission through them. We discuss in this work…
We study a variation of the trapping reaction, A+B->A, in which both the traps (A) and the particles (B) undergo diffusion, and the traps upon meeting react according to A+A->0 or A. This two-species reaction-diffusion system is known to…
