A branching random walk in presence of an absorbing wall moving at a constant velocity $v$ undergoes a phase transition as the velocity $v$ of the wall varies. Below the critical velocity $v_c$, the population has a non-zero survival…

We study analytically a simple random walk model on a one-dimensional lattice, where at each time step the walker resets to the maximum of the already visited positions (to the rightmost visited site) with a probability $r$, and with…

The integer points (sites) of the real line are marked by the positions of a standard random walk. We say that the set of marked sites is weakly, moderately or strongly sparse depending on whether the jumps of the standard random walk are…

The extreme value statistics of active matter offer significant insight into their unique properties. A phase transition has recently been reported in a model of branching run-and-tumble particles, describing the spatial spreading of an…

We study occupancy counts for the critical nearest-neighbor branching random walk on the $d$-dimensional lattice, conditioned on non-extinction. For $d\geq 3$, Lalley and Zheng (2011) showed that the properly scaled joint distribution of…

In this paper, we study the distribution of the boundary points of expansion. As an application, we say something about the lonely runner problem. We show that given $k$ runners $\mathcal{S}_i$ round a unit circular track with the condition…

We study a one dimensional gas of $N$ noninteracting diffusing particles in a harmonic trap, whose stiffness switches between two values $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ with constant rates $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. Despite the absence of direct…

Let $\{\xi(k), k \in \mathbb{Z} \}$ be a stationary sequence of random variables with conditions of type $D(u_n)$ and $D'(u_n)$. Let $\{S_n, n \in \mathbb{N} \}$ be a transient random walk in the domain of attraction of a stable law. We…

We study the structure and learnability of sums of independent integer random variables (SIIRVs). For $k \in \mathbb{Z}_{+}$, a $k$-SIIRV of order $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{+}$ is the probability distribution of the sum of $n$ independent random…

This work presents global random walk approximations of solutions to one-dimensional Stefan-type moving-boundary problems. We are particularly interested in the case when the moving boundary is driven by an explicit representation of its…

We study the random walk problem on a class of deterministic Scale-Free networks displaying a degree sequence for hubs scaling as a power law with an exponent $\gamma=\log 3/\log2$. We find exact results concerning different first-passage…

We give sharp, uniform estimates for the probability that the empirical distribution function for n uniform-[0,1] random variables stays to one side of a given line.

Let $r: S\times S\to \bb R_+$ be the jump rates of an irreducible random walk on a finite set $S$, reversible with respect to some probability measure $m$. For $\alpha >1$, let $g: \bb N\to \bb R_+$ be given by $g(0)=0$, $g(1)=1$, $g(k) =…

This article studies the quasi-stationary behaviour of absorbed one-dimensional diffusions. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the exponential convergence to a unique quasi-stationary distribution in total variation,…

We formulate the first order Fermi acceleration in parallel shock waves in terms of the random walk theory. The formulation is applicable to any value of the shock speed and the particle speed, in particular to the acceleration in…

We study the statistics of records of a one-dimensional random walk of n steps, starting from the origin, and in presence of a constant bias c. At each time-step the walker makes a random jump of length \eta drawn from a continuous…

In this paper, we study random walks $g_n=f_{n-1}\cdots f_0$ on the group $\mathrm{Homeo}(S^1)$ of the homeomorphisms of the circle, where the homeomorphisms $f_k$ are chosen randomly, independently, with respect to a same probability…

Consider a medium characterized by N points whose coordinates are randomly generated by a uniform distribution along the edges of a unitary d-dimensional hypercube. A walker leaves from each point of this disordered medium and moves…

We study the first-passage properties of a random walk in the unit interval in which the length of a single step is uniformly distributed over the finite range [-a,a]. For a of the order of one, the exit probabilities to each edge of the…

We discuss the generalization of a classical problem involving an $N$-step ideal polymer adsorption at a sticky boundary (potential well of depth $U$). It is known that as $N$ approaches infinity, the path undergoes a 2nd-order localization…
