Non-spherical particles transported by an anisotropic turbulent flow preferentially align with the mean shear and intermittently tumble when the local strain fluctuates. Such an intricate behaviour is here studied for inertialess,…

Anomalous diffusion is an established phenomenon but still a theoretical challenge in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Physical models are built incrementally, and the most recent and most general family is based on the fractional…

Strong anomalous diffusion is {often} characterized by a piecewise-linear spectrum of the moments of displacement. The spectrum is characterized by slopes $\xi$ and $\zeta$ for small and large moments, respectively, and by the critical…

The Generalized Langevin Equation (GLE) is a Stochastic Integro-Differential Equation that is commonly used to describe the velocity of microparticles that move randomly in viscoelastic fluids. Such particles commonly exhibit what is known…

Anomalous diffusion constitutes a relation between tracer flux and tracer density gradient that is inherently nonlocal in space and/or time. Previous studies emphasize the non-Gaussian character of the tracer distribution that arises from…

The way tension propagates along a chain is a key to govern many of anomalous dynamics in macromolecular systems. After introducing the weak and the strong force regimes of the tension propagation, we focus on the latter, in which the…

We numerically study the Loewner driving function U_t of a site percolation cluster boundary on the triangular lattice for p<p_c. It is found that U_t shows a drifted random walk with a finite crossover time. Within this crossover time, the…
