The change from the diffusion-limited to the reaction-limited cooperative behaviour in reaction-diffusion systems is analysed by comparing the universal long-time behaviour of the coagulation-diffusion process on a chain and on the Bethe lattice. On a chain, this model is exactly solvable through the empty-interval method. This method can be extended to the Bethe lattice, in the ben-Avraham-Glasser approximation. On the Bethe lattice, the analysis of the Laplace-transformed time-dependent particle-density is analogous to the study of the stationary state, if a stochastic reset to a configuration of uncorrelated particles is added. In this stationary state logarithmic corrections to scaling are found, as expected for systems at the upper critical dimension. Analogous results hold true for the time-integrated particle-density. The crossover scaling functions and the associated effective exponents between the chain and the Bethe lattice are derived.

We discuss the scaling of characteristic lengths in diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) clusters in light of recent developments using conformal maps. We are led to the conjecture that the apparently anomalous scaling of lengths is due to one slow cr ossover. This is supported by an analytical argument for the scaling of the penetration depth of newly arrived random walkers, and by numerical evidence on the Laurent coefficients which uniquely determine each cluster. We find a single crossover exponent of -0.3 for all the characteristic lengths in DLA. This gives a hint about the structure of the renormalization group for this problem.

We performed extensive numerical simulation of diffusion-limited aggregation in two dimensional channel geometry. Contrary to earlier claims, the measured fractal dimension D = 1.712 +- 0.002 and its leading correction to scaling are the same as in t he radial case. The average cluster, defined as the average conformal map, is similar but not identical to Saffman-Taylor fingers.
The capture and translocation of biomolecules through nanometer-scale pores are processes with a potential large number of applications, and hence they have been intensively studied in the recent years. The aim of this paper is to review existing mod els of the capture process by a nanopore, together with some recent experimental data of short single- and double-stranded DNA captured by Cytolysin A (ClyA) nanopore. ClyA is a transmembrane protein of bacterial origin which has been recently engineered through site-specific mutations, to allow the translocation of double- and single-stranded DNA. A comparison between theoretical estimations and experiments suggests that for both cases the capture is a reaction-limited process. This is corroborated by the observed salt dependence of the capture rate, which we find to be in quantitative agreement with the theoretical predictions.
We study an infinite system of moving particles, where each particle is of type A or B. Particles perform independent random walks at rates D_A>0 and D_B>0, and the interaction is given by mutual annihilation A+B->0. The initial condition is i.i.d. w ith finite first moment. We show that this system is site-recurrent, that is, each site is visited infinitely many times. We also generalize a lower bound on the density decay of Bramson and Lebowitz by considering a construction that handles different jump rates.
Reaction-diffusion systems which include processes of the form A+A->A or A+A->0 are characterised by the appearance of `imaginary multiplicative noise terms in an effective Langevin-type description. However, if `real as well as `imaginary noise is p resent, then competition between the two could potentially lead to novel behaviour. We thus investigate the asymptotic properties of the following two `mixed noise reaction-diffusion systems. The first is a combination of the annihilation and scattering processes 2A->0, 2A->2B, 2B->2A, and 2B->0. We demonstrate (to all orders in perturbation theory) that this system belongs to the same universality class as the single species annihilation reaction 2A->0. Our second system consists of competing annihilation and fission processes, 2A->0 and 2A->(n+2)A, a model which exhibits a transition between active and absorbing phases. However, this transition and the active phase are not accessible to perturbative methods, as the field theory describing these reactions is shown to be non-renormalisable. This corresponds to the fact that there is no stationary state in the active phase, where the particle density diverges at finite times. We discuss the implications of our analysis for a recent study of another active / absorbing transition in a system with multiplicative noise.
