This paper proposes a simple model of anomalous diffusion, in which a particle moves with the velocity field induced by a single "dipole" (a doublet or a pair of source and sink), whose moment is modulated randomly at each time step. A…

The time dependent Tsallis statistical distribution describing anomalous diffusion is usually obtained in the literature as the solution of a non-linear Fokker-Planck (FP) equation [A.R. Plastino and A. Plastino, Physica A, 222, 347…
