The mutual compatibility of the dynamical equations and constraints describing a massive particle of arbitrary spin, though essential for consistency, is generically lost in the presence of interactions. The conventional Lagrangian approach…

We investigate the emergence of rigid polycrystalline structures from atomistic particle systems. The atomic interaction is governed by a suitably normalized pair interaction energy, where the `sticky disk' interaction potential models the…

Take a multidimensional normally or obliquely reflected diffusion in a smooth domain. Approximate it by solutions of stochastic differential equations without reflection using the penalty method. That is, we approximate the reflection term…

A system of interacting particles described by stochastic differential equations is considered. As oppopsed to the usual model, where the noise perturbations acting on different particles are independent, here the particles are subject to…

We consider a model system of persistent random walkers that can jam, pass through each other or jump apart (recoil) on contact. In a continuum limit, where particle motion between stochastic changes in direction becomes deterministic, we…

This paper tackles the problem of nonlinear systems, with sublinear growth but unbounded control, under perturbation of some time-varying state constraints. It is shown that, given a trajectory to be approximated, one can find a neighboring…

We consider two particles performing continuous-time nearest neighbor random walk on $\mathbb Z$ and interacting with each other when they are at neighboring positions. Typical examples are two particles in the partial exclusion process or…
