| contents | We review some representative results for first-passage problems involving so-called mortal or evanescent walkers, i.e., walkers with a finite lifetime. The mortality constraint plays a key role in the modeling of many real scenarios, as it filters out long Brownian trajectories, thereby drastically modifying space exploration properties. Among such scenarios, we consider here different first-passage problems, including one or many searchers, resetting, anomalous diffusion, evolving domains, and the narrow escape problem. In spite of the different physics, the mathematical treatment draws strongly on the formalism for standard (i.e., immortal) walkers. |
