Abstract It has recently been proved that, in the presence of a static absorbing trap, Sisyphus random walkers with a restart mechanism are characterized by exponentially decreasing asymptotic survival probability functions. Interestingly, in the present compact paper we prove analytically that, in the presence of a moving trap whose velocity approaches zero asymptotically in time as v trap ∼ 1 / t , the survival probabilities of the Sisyphus walkers are dramatically changed into inverse power-law decaying tails.
