We propose to model the stochastic dynamics of a polymer passing through a pore (translocation) by means of a fractional Brownian motion and study its behavior in the presence of an absorbing boundary. Based on scaling arguments and numerical simulations, we present a conjecture that provides a link between the persistence exponent theta and the Hurst exponent H of the process, thus shedding light on the spatial and temporal features of translocation. Furthermore, we show that this conjecture applies more generally to a broad class of self-affine processes undergoing anomalous diffusion in bounded domains, and we discuss some significant examples.
