We consider the movement of a particle advected by a random flow of the form $\vv+\delta \bF(\vx)$, with $\vv\in\R^d$ a constant drift, $\bF(\vx)$ -- the fluctuation -- given by a zero mean, stationary random field and $\delta\ll 1$ so that…
We deal with some extensions of the space-fractional diffusion equation, which is satisfied by the density of a stable process (see Mainardi, Luchko, Pagnini (2001)): the first equation considered here is obtained by adding an exponential…
