We study the Brownian motion of a single particle coupled to an external ac field in a two-dimensional random potential. We find that for small fields a large-scale vorticity pattern of the steady-state net currents emerges, a consequence…

We study the long time behaviour of the speed of a particle moving in $\mathbb{R}^d$ under the influence of a random time-dependent potential representing the particle's environment. The particle undergoes successive scattering events that…

We investigate the persistence probability $p(t)$ of the position of a Brownian particle with shape asymmetry in two dimensions. The persistence probability is defined as the probability that a stochastic variable has not changed it's sign…

An analysis is presented of a Brownian particle moving on the half-line, subject to a restoring force proportional to its displacement and an absorbing boundary at the origin. When the initial displacement is large, the central moments of…

We consider an irreducible pair $\mu \leq_c \nu$ of probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$ in convex order. In arXiv:2306.11019, Backhoff, Beiglb\"ock, Schachermayer and Tschiderer have shown that the Stretched Brownian Motion from $\mu$ to…

We provide a rigorous derivation of the brownian motion as the limit of a deterministic system of hard-spheres as the number of particles $N$ goes to infinity and their diameter $\varepsilon$ simultaneously goes to $0$, in the fast…

We study the height of the maximal particle at time $t$ of a one dimensional branching Brownian motion with a space-dependent branching rate. The branching rate is set to zero in finitely many intervals (obstacles) of order $t$. We obtain…

By considering a counting-type argument on Brownian sample paths, we prove a result similar to that of Orey and Taylor on the exact Hausdorff dimension of the rapid points of Brownian motion. Because of the nature of the proof we can then…

We consider stochastic dynamics of a particle on a plane in presence of two noises and a confining parabolic potential - an analog of the experimentally-relevant Brownian Gyrator (BG) model. In contrast to the standard BG model, we suppose…

We consider the quantum dynamics of a single particle in the plane under the influence of a constant perpendicular magnetic and a crossed electric potential field. For a class of smooth and small potentials we construct a non-trivial…

The Brownian motion of a point particle induced by quantum vacuum fluctuations of a massless real scalar field in Einstein's universe is studied. By assuming the small displacement condition, the dispersion in the momentum and position of a…

Let $\Gamma$ denote the space of all locally finite subsets (configurations) in $R^d$. A stochastic dynamics of binary jumps in continuum is a Markov process on $\Gamma$ in which pairs of particles simultaneously hop over $R^d$. In this…

In the recent article [Jentzen, A., M\"uller-Gronbach, T., and Yaroslavtseva, L., Commun. Math. Sci., 14(6), 1477--1500, 2016] it has been established that for every arbitrarily slow convergence speed and every natural number $d \in…
