The long-time behavior of a reaction-diffusion front between one static (e.g. porous solid) reactant A and one initially separated diffusing reactant B is analyzed for the mean-field reaction-rate density R(\rho_A,\rho_B) =…
We address the dynamics of adsorbed molecules (a fundamental issue in surface physics) within the framework of a Master Equation scheme, and study the diffusion of particles in a finite cubic lattice whose boundaries are at the $z=1$ and…
We consider a reaction-diffusion equation on a 3D thin porous media of thickness $\varepsilon$ which is perforated by periodically distributed cylinders of size $\varepsilon$. On the boundary of the cylinders we prescribe a dynamical…
The reversible A <-> B reaction-diffusion process, when species A and B are initially mixed and diffuse with different diffusion coefficients, is investigated using the boundary layer function method. It is assumed that the ratio of the…
We derive an approximate but fully explicit formula for the mean first-passage time (MFPT) to a small absorbing target of arbitrary shape in a general elongated domain in the plane. Our approximation combines conformal mapping, boundary…
For a cell moving in hydrodynamic flow above a wall, translational and rotational degrees of freedom are coupled by the Stokes equation. In addition, there is a close coupling of convection and diffusion due to the position-dependent…
We study the non-Arrhenius behavior of surface diffusion near the second-order phase transition boundary of an adsorbate layer. In contrast to expectations based on macroscopic thermodynamic effects, we show that this behavior can be…
We investigate the diffusive motion of an overdamped classical particle in a 1D random potential using the mean first-passage time formalism and demonstrate the efficiency of this method in the investigation of the large-time dynamics of…
The reversible reactions like A+B <-> C in the many-component diffusive system affect the diffusive properties of the constituents. The effective conjugation of irreversible processes of different dimensionality takes place due to the…
This paper investigates solutions of hyperbolic diffusion equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with random initial conditions. The solutions are given as spatial-temporal random fields. Their restrictions to the unit sphere $S^2$ are studied. All…
We consider a reaction-diffusion process with retardation. The particles, immersed in traps initially, remain inactive until another particle is annihilated spontaneously with a rate $\lambda$ at a certain point $\vec x$. In that case the…
In this paper, we develop an encounter-based model of partial surface adsorption for fractional diffusion in a bounded domain. We take the probability of adsorption to depend on the amount of particle-surface contact time, as specified by a…
A consolidated mathematical formulation of the spherically symmetric mass-transfer problem is presented, with the quasi-stationary approximating equations derived from a perturbation point of view for the leading-order effect. For the…
The surface current method known in the theory of electromagnetic waves diffraction is generalized to be applied for the problems of diffraction radiation generated by a charged particle moving nearby an ideally-conducting screen in vacuum.…
Diffusion at solid-liquid interfaces is crucial in many technological and biophysical processes. Although its behavior seems deceivingly simple, recent studies showing passive superdiffusive transport suggest diffusion on surfaces may hide…
The mean-field reaction-diffusion equations of the diffusive pair-annihilation and triplett-annihilation processes are considered. A direct lower bound on the time-dependent mean particle-density is derived. The results are applied to the…
We study the asymptotic behavior of branching diffusion processes in periodic media. For a super-critical branching process, we distinguish two types of behavior for the normalized number of particles in a bounded domain, depending on the…
In this paper we develop a hybrid version of the encounter-based approach to diffusion-mediated absorption at a reactive surface, which takes into account stochastic switching of a diffusing particle's conformational state. For simplicity,…
A finite-time fluctuation theorem for the diffusion-influenced surface reaction A <=> B is investigated for spherical and Janus catalytic particles. The finite-time rates and thermodynamic force are analytically calculated by solving…
We investigate the mean first passage time of an active Brownian particle in one dimension using numerical simulations. The activity in one dimension is modeled as a two state model; the particle moves with a constant propulsion strength…
