Closed-form survival probabilities for biased random walks at arbitrary step number

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
We present a closed-form expression for the survival probability of a biased random walker to first reach a target site on a one-dimensional lattice. The expression holds for any step number N and is computationally faster than non-closed-form results in
