This paper proposes a mathematical justification of the phenomenon of extreme congestion at a very limited number of nodes in very large networks. It is argued that this phenomenon occurs as a combination of the negative curvature property…

In hyperbolic space density cannot be defined by a limit as we define it in Euclidean space. We describe the local density bounds for sphere packings and we discuss the different attempts to define optimal arrangements in hyperbolic space.

The motion of particles in random potentials occurs in several natural phenomena ranging from the mobility of organelles within a biological cell to the diffusion of stars within a galaxy. A Brownian particle moving in the random optical…

We discuss the escape rate of the Brownian motion on a hyperbolic space. We point out that the escape rate is determined by using the Brownian expression of the radial part and a generalized Kolmogorov's test for the one dimensional…

We present a game inspired by research on the possible number of billiard ball collisions in the whole Euclidean space. One player tries to place $n$ static "balls" with zero radius (i.e., points) in a way that will minimize the total…

Consider the following process whereby $n$ balls are distributed into $k$ bins. Repeatedly, a ball is removed from a non-empty bin chosen uniformly at random. The process ends when a single non-empty bin remains. Will Ma…

We consider the model space of constant curvature in dimension n and characterize all co-adapted couplings of Brownian motions on this space for which the distance between the processes is deterministic. In addition, the construction of the…

We show that the uniform norm of generalized grey Brownian motion over the unit interval has an analytic density, excluding the special case of fractional Brownian motion. Our main result is an asymptotic expansion for the small ball…

We derive the moments of the first passage time for Brownian motion conditioned by either the maximum value or the area swept out by the motion. These quantities are the natural counterparts to the moments of the maximum value and area of…

Active Brownian motion is the complex motion of active Brownian particles. They are active in the sense that they can transform their internal energy into energy of motion and thus create complex motion patterns. Theories of active Brownian…
