Transport phenomena in spatially periodic systems far from thermal equilibrium are
considered. The main emphasis is put on directed transport in so-called Brownian motors …

We review the behavior of theoretical models of excitable systems driven by Gaussian white
noise. We focus mainly on those general properties of such systems that are due to noise …

We study experimentally and numerically a (quasi-) two-dimensional colloidal suspension of
self-propelled spherical particles. The particles are carbon-coated Janus particles, which are …

We present an improved and enlarged version of our book Nonlinear-namics of Chaotic and
Stochastic Systems published by Springer in 2002. Basically, the new edition of the book …

Intended for graduate students and researchers in physics, chemistry, biology, and applied
mathematics, this book provides an up-to-date introduction to current research in fluctuations …

Providing an introduction to the theory of nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations, this book
discusses fundamental properties of transient and stationary solutions, emphasizing the …

Extreme events gain the attention of researchers due to their utmost importance in various
contexts ranging from climate to brain. An observable that deviates significantly from its long …

Natural systems are undeniably subject to random fluctuations, arising from either
environmental variability or thermal effects. The consideration of those fluctuations supposes …

Highly organized vegetation patterns can be found in a number of landscapes around the
world. In recent years, several authors have investigated the processes underlying …

We enhance the response of a “stochastic resonator” by coupling it into a chain of identical
resonators. Specifically, we show via numerical simulation that local linear coupling of …
