We study the dynamics of an active Brownian particle with a nonlinear friction function located in a spatial cubic potential. For strong but finite damping, the escape rate of the particle over the spatial potential barrier shows a…
The problems of escape from metastable state in randomly flipping potential and of diffusion in fast fluctuating periodic potentials are considered. For the overdamped Brownian particle moving in a piecewise linear dichotomously fluctuating…
We consider the motion of a particle in a force field subjected to adiabatic, fluctuations of external origin. We do not put the restriction on the type of stochastic process that the noise is Gaussian. Based on a method developed earlier…
We experimentally realize quasistatic adiabatic processes using a single optically-trapped micro- sphere immersed in water whose effective temperature is controlled by an external random electric field. A full energetic characterization of…
Activity significantly enhances the escape rate of a Brownian particle over a potential barrier. Whereas constant activity has been extensively studied in the past, little is known about the effect of time-dependent activity on the escape…
The escape of a Brownian particle over a dichotomously fluctuating barrier is investigated for various shapes of the barrier. The problem of resonant activation is revisited with the attention on the effect of the barrier shape on optimal…
We explore the dependence of the thermally activated barrier crossing rate on various model parameters for a dimer that undergoes a Brownian motion on a piecewise linear bistable potential employing the method of adiabatic elimination of…
The diffusion of a fractional Brownian particle passing over the saddle point is studied in the field of the metastable potential. The barrier escaping probability is found to be greatly related to the fractional exponent $\alpha$.…
We study the noise-driven escape of active Brownian particles (ABPs) and run-and-tumble particles (RTPs) from confining potentials. In the small noise limit, we provide an exact expression for the escape rate in term of a variational…
We consider the motion of an overdamped particle in a force field in presence of an external, adiabatic noise, without the restriction that the noise process is Gaussian or the stochastic process is Markovian. We examine the condition for…
The narrow escape problem deals with the calculation of the mean escape time (MET) of a Brownian particle from a bounded domain through a small hole on the domain's boundary. Here we develop a formalism that allows us to evaluate the…
In this work, we revisit the electron transfer rate theory, with particular interests in the distinct quantum solvation effect, and the characterizations of adiabatic/nonadiabatic and Markovian/non-Markovian rate processes. We first present…
Rate processes with dynamical disorder are investigated within a simple framework provided by unidirectional electron transfer (ET) with fluctuating transfer rate. The rate fluctuations are assumed to be described by a non-Markovian…
The crossover from nonadiabatic to adiabatic electron transfer has been theoretically studied under a spin-boson model (dissipative two-state system) description. We present numerically exact data for the thermal transfer rate and the…
Does electron transfer (ET) kinetics within a single-electron trajectory description always coincide with the ensemble description? This fundamental question of ergodic behavior is scrutinized within a very basic semi-classical…
In this paper, a comprehensive examination of the temperature- and bias-dependent diffusion regimes of underdamped Brownian particles is presented. A temperature threshold for a transition between anomalous and normal diffusive behaviors is…
Elastic confinements are an important component of many biological systems and dictate the transport properties of suspended particles under flow. In this chapter, we review the Brownian motion of a particle moving in the vicinity of a…
The dissipative curve-crossing problem provides a paradigm for electron-transfer (ET) processes in condensed media. It establishes the simplest conceptual test bed to study the influence of the medium's dynamics on ET kinetics both on the…
We present a real-time path integral theory for the rate of electron transfer reactions. Using graph theoretic techniques, the dynamics is expressed in a formally exact way as a set of integral equations. With a simple approximation for the…
We investigate the effect of inertia on barrierless electronic reactions in solution by suggesting and examining different probability distribution functions (PDF) of relevant Brownian functionals associated with the lifetime and reactivity…
