Exploiting powerful techniques from physics and mathematics, this book studies animal movement in ecology, with a focus on epidemic spread. Pulmonary syndrome is not only …
A lattice random walk is a mathematical representation of movement through random steps on a lattice at discrete times. It is commonly referred to as Pólya's walk when the steps occur …
This book provides a graduate-level introduction to three powerful and closely related techniques in condensed matter physics: memory functions, projection operators, and the …
The ability to quantify when and where animals interact is key to the understanding of a plethora of ecological processes, from the structure of social communities and predator–prey …
Random transmission events between individuals occurring at short scales control patterns emerging at much larger scales in natural and artificial systems. Examples range from the …

We consider a random walker whose motion is tethered around a focal point. We use two models that exhibit the same spatial dependence in the steady state but widely different …

Explicit solutions are presented in the Laplace and time domains for a one-variable Fokker– Planck equation governing the probability density of a random walker moving in a confining …

The process of transmission of infection in epidemics is analyzed by studying a pair of random walkers, the motion of each of which in two dimensions is confined spatially by the …
