= Narrow escape problem
{wiki=Narrow_escape_problem}
The Narrow Escape Problem is a concept often encountered in mathematical biology, particularly in the field of diffusion processes and stochastic processes. It refers to the study of how particles (or small organisms) escape from a confined space through a narrow opening or boundary. In more technical terms, it examines the diffusion of particles that are subject to certain conditions, such as being confined within a domain but having a small chance of escaping through a specific narrow region (e.g., an exit or an absorbing boundary).
