This paper is concerned with a non-homogeneous in space and non-local in time random walk model for anomalous subdiffusive transport of cells. Starting with a Markov model involving a structured probability density function, we derive the…

Previous studies have suggested a crossover from superdiffusive to normal heat transport in one-dimensional (1D) anharmonic oscillator systems with a double-well type interatomic interaction like $V(\xi)=-\xi^2/2+\xi^4/4$, when the system…
Diffusion, a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature, is a consequence of particle number conservation and locality, in systems with sufficient damping. In this paper we consider diffusive processes in the bulk of Weyl semimetals, which are exotic…
A tracer particle is called anomalously diffusive if its mean squared displacement grows approximately as $\sigma^2 t^{\alpha}$ as a function of time $t$ for some constant $\sigma^2$, where the diffusion exponent satisfies $\alpha \neq 1$.…
In classical diffusion, particle step-sizes have a Gaussian distribution. However, in superdiffusion, they have power-law tails, with transport dominated by rare, long L\'evy flights. Similarly, if the time interval between scattering…

Brownian motion is ballistic on short time scales and diffusive on long time scales. Our theoretical investigations indicate that one can observe the exact opposite - an "anomaleous diffusion process" where initially diffusive motion…
