Anomalous diffusion, manifest as a nonlinear temporal evolution of the position mean square displacement, and/or non-Gaussian features of the position statistics, is prevalent in biological transport processes. Likewise, collective behavior…

We study a method for detecting the origins of anomalous diffusion, when it is observed in an ensemble of times-series, generated experimentally or numerically, without having knowledge about the exact underlying dynamics. The reasons for…

Sub-diffusion in biological systems is conventionally treated as anomalous, requiring fractional derivatives, heavy-tailed waiting times, or fitted memory kernels. We argue that this anomaly is an artifact of an incomplete phase space.…
