Anomalous subdiffusion characterizes transport in diverse physical systems and is especially prevalent inside biological cells. In cell biology, the prevailing model for chemical activation rates has recently changed from the first passage…
Einstein's explanation of Brownian motion provided one of the cornerstones which underlie the modern approaches to stochastic processes. His approach is based on a random walk picture and is valid for Markovian processes lacking long-term…

This paper is devoted to a fundamental solution of a nonlinear kinetic equation involving a porous medium or fast diffusion operator acting on velocities. Such a nonlinearity has interesting scaling properties, which result in a…
Continuous Time Random Walk(CTRW) is a model where particle's jumps in space are coupled with waiting times before each jump. A Continuous Time Random Walk Limit(CTRWL) is obtained by a limit procedure on a CTRW and can be used to model…
We investigate the impact of external periodic potentials on superdiffusive random walks known as Levy flights and show that even strongly superdiffusive transport is substantially affected by the external field. Unlike ordinary random…
In this work we present the logarithmic diffusion equation as a limit case when the index that characterizes a nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation, in its diffusive term, goes to zero. A linear drift and a source term are considered in this…
We study a particular generalisation of the classical Kramers model describing Brownian particles in the external potential. The generalised model includes the stochastic force which is modelled as an additive random noise that depends upon…

An intermittent nonlinear map generating subdiffusion is investigated. Computer simulations show that the generalized diffusion coefficient of this map has a fractal, discontinuous dependence on control parameters. An amended continuous…
In this work, the primary goal is to establish rigorous connection between the Fokker-Planck equation of neural networks with its microscopic model: the diffusion-jump stochastic process that captures the mean field behavior of collections…
Fokker-Planck equation with the velocity-dependent coefficients is considered for various isotropic systems on the basis of probability transition (PT) approach. This method provides the self-consistent and universal description of friction…
The fractional Fokker-Planck equation (FFPE) [R. Metzler, E. Barkai, J. Klafter, Phys. Rev. Lett., 82, 3563 (1999)] describes an anomalous sub diffusive behavior of a particle in an external force field. In this paper we present the…
We extend the random walk framework to include compounded steps, providing first-passage time (FPT) properties for a new class of superdiffusive processes, which are governed by the space-fractional spectral Fokker-Planck equation. This…
We consider new connections between the problem of trend to equilibrium for the n-dimensional Fokker--Planck equation of statistical physics, and weighted Poincar\'e inequality. To this aim we consider a class of n-dimensional…
We show that {\it strong} anomalous diffusion, i.e. $\mean{|x(t)|^q} \sim t^{q \nu(q)}$ where $q \nu(q)$ is a nonlinear function of $q$, is a generic phenomenon within a class of generalized continuous-time random walks. For such class of…
We show that the general two-variable Langevin equations with inhomogeneous noise and friction can generate many different forms of power-law distributions. By solving the corresponding stationary Fokker-Planck equation, we can obtain a…
We show that the generalized diffusion coefficient of a subdiffusive intermittent map is a fractal function of control parameters. A modified continuous time random walk theory yields its coarse functional form and correctly describes a…
Many physical, biological or social systems are governed by history-dependent dynamics or are composed of strongly interacting units, showing an extreme diversity of microscopic behaviour. Macroscopically, however, they can be efficiently…
We consider the Langevin equation with multiplicative noise term which depends on time and space. The corresponding Fokker-Planck equation in Stratonovich approach is investigated. Its formal solution is obtained for an arbitrary…
