The meter-size barrier in protoplanetary disks is a major challenge in planet formation, for which many solutions were suggested. One of the leading solutions is dust traps, that halt or slow the inward migration of dust particles. The source and profile of these traps are still not completely known. Warped disks are ubiquitous among accretion disks in general and protoplanetary disks in particular, and the warping could lead naturally to the formation of dust traps. Dust traps in warped disks could rise not only from pressure gradients, but also due to different precession rates between gas and dust. Here we derive analytically the radial drift in warped disks, and demonstrate derivation for some specific conditions. The radial drift in warped protoplanetary disks is qualitatively different, and depending on the structure of the disk, dust traps could form due to the warping. Similar processes could lead to the formation of traps also in other accretion disks such as AGN disks.
