Single-file diffusion is a paradigmatic model for the transport of Brownian colloidal particles in narrow one-dimensional channels, such as those found in certain porous media, where the particles cannot cross each other. We consider a…

Long DNA molecules can be mapped by cutting them with restriction enzymes inside a narrow channel. Once cut, the individual fragments thus produced move away from each other due to diffusion and entropic effects. We investigate how long it…

We study the transport properties of a system of active particles moving at constant speed in an heterogeneous two-dimensional space. The spatial heterogeneity is modeled by a random distribution of obstacles, which the active particles…

We consider a gas of point particles moving on the one-dimensional line with a hard-core inter-particle interaction that prevents particle crossings --- this is usually referred to as single-file motion. The individual particle dynamics can…

We study diffusion of particles in large-scale simulations of one-dimensional stochastic sandpiles, in both the restricted and unrestricted versions. The results indicate that the diffusion constant scales in the same manner as the activity…

We demonstrate that the Einstein relation for the diffusion of a particle in the random energy landscape with the Gaussian density of states is an exclusive 1D property and does not hold in higher dimensions. We also consider the analytical…
