We present Fractional Diffusion Bridge Models (FDBM), a novel generative diffusion bridge framework driven by an approximation of the rich and non-Markovian fractional Brownian motion (fBM). Real stochastic processes exhibit a degree of…

The diffusive motion of overdamped Brownian particles in tilted piecewise linear pontentials is considered. It is shown that the enhancement of diffusion coefficient by an external static force is quite sensitive to the symmetry of periodic…

It is well-known that stochastic processes on fractal spaces or in certain random media exhibit anomalous heat kernel behaviour. One manifestation of such irregular behaviour is the presence of fluctuations in the short- or long-time…
