Competition between slow and fast regimes for extreme first passage times of diffusion
Jacob B. Madrid, Sean D. Lawley
Many physical, chemical, and biological systems depend on the first passage time (FPT) of a diffusive searcher to a target. Typically, this FPT is much slower than the characterist…

A probabilistic approach to extreme statistics of Brownian escape times in dimensions 1, 2, and 3
Sean D. Lawley, Jacob B. Madrid
First passage time (FPT) theory is often used to estimate timescales in cellular and molecular biology. While the overwhelming majority of studies have focused on the time it takes…
