thirds" in turbulent diffusion, the article introduces the Lévy flight superdiffusion as a self …

Fractional Fokker-Planck equation, solution, and application

E Barkai - Physical Review E, 2001 - APS
Abstract Recently, Metzler et al.[Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 3563 (1999)], introduced a fractional
Fokker-Planck equation (FFPE) describing a subdiffusive behavior of a particle under the …

Anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in one-dimensional systems

B Li, J Wang - Physical review letters, 2003 - APS
We establish a connection between anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in
one-dimensional systems. It is shown that if the mean square of the displacement of the …

The fractional Laplacian operator−(− Δ) α∕ 2 appears in a wide class of physical systems,
including Lévy flights and stochastic interfaces. In this paper, we provide a discretized …

First passage and arrival time densities for Lévy flights and the failure of the method of images

AV Chechkin, R Metzler, VY Gonchar… - Journal of Physics A …, 2003 - iopscience.iop.org
We discuss the first passage time problem in the semi-infinite interval, for homogeneous
stochastic Markov processes with Lévy stable jump length distributions λ (x)∼ ℓ α/| x| 1+ α …

The switch in a genetic toggle system with Lévy noise

Y Xu, Y Li, H Zhang, X Li, J Kurths - Scientific reports, 2016 - nature.com
A bistable toggle switch is a paradigmatic model in the field of biology. The dynamics of the
system induced by Gaussian noise has been intensively investigated, but Gaussian noise …

Lévy-Brownian motion on finite intervals: Mean first passage time analysis

B Dybiec, E Gudowska-Nowak, P Hänggi - Physical Review E—Statistical …, 2006 - APS
We present the analysis of the first passage time problem on a finite interval for the
generalized Wiener process that is driven by Lévy stable noises. The complexity of the first …

Average time spent by Lévy flights and walks on an interval with absorbing boundaries

SV Buldyrev, S Havlin, AY Kazakov, MGE da Luz… - Physical Review E, 2001 - APS
We consider a Lévy flyer of order α that starts from a point x 0 on an interval [O, L] with
absorbing boundaries. We find a closed-form expression for the average number of flights …

First-passage time of run-and-tumble particles

L Angelani, R Di Leonardo, M Paoluzzi - The European Physical Journal E, 2014 - Springer
We solve the problem of first-passage time for run-and-tumble particles in one dimension.
Exact expression is derived for the mean first-passage time in the general case, considering …
