The mechanism of diffusing diffusivity predicts that, in environments where the diffusivity changes gradually, the displacement distribution becomes non-Gaussian, even though the mean-squared displacement (MSD) grows linearly with time.…

We study transport properties in a slowly driven diffusive system where the transport is externally controlled by a parameter $p$. Three types of behavior are found: For $p<p'$ the system is not conducting at all. For intermediate $p$ a…
