We analyse the motion of a system of particles subjected a random force fluctuating in both space and time, and experiencing viscous damping. When the damping exceeds a certain threshold, the system undergoes a phase transition: the…
We investigate the kinetics of uniformly driven $A+B \to 0$ reaction with mass-dependent fragmentation in one dimension. In this model, the fragmented mass $m$ of a site with mass $n_i$ is given as $m=n^{\lambda}_i$, and it is driven to the…

Intracellular protein patterns are described by (nearly) mass-conserving reaction-diffusion systems. While these patterns initially form out of a homogeneous steady state due to the well-understood Turing instability, no general theory…

We study diffusion-limited coalescence, A+A<-->A$, in one dimension, and derive an exact solution for the steady state in the presence of a trap. Without the trap, the system arrives at an equilibrium state which satisfies detailed balance,…
Relationships between sediment flux and geomorphic processes are combined with statements of mass conservation, in order to create continuum models of hillslope evolution. These models have parameters which can be calibrated using available…
