SDE's must be solved in the "anti-Ito" sense when their coefficients are independent. While the "noise-induced drift" matters for the sample paths, it is absent in the Fokker-Planck equation, which takes a particularly simple form and is…
The Fokker-Planck equation needs to be modified when the diffusion parameters are not constant, in order to match it with the backward equation. It even becomes simpler, and the integration of the underlying stochastic differential equation…
Only the "anti-Ito" integral yields the correct shift of the mean, by the fact that the elements of its Riemannian sum hold in the order O(dt) rather than only in O(sqrt dt). The corresponding "full" Fokker-Planck equation is particularly…
The existence and uniqueness of measure-valued solutions to stochastic nonlinear, non-local Fokker-Planck equations is proven. This type of stochastic PDE is shown to arise in the mean field limit of weakly interacting diffusions with…
A free choice of the integration sense would lead to the paradox that the number of possible equations (thus of solutions for a given model) can vary under a mere change of the variables. This is shown by a specific change which neutralizes…
Diffusion theory establishes a fundamental connection between stochastic differential equations and partial differential equations. The solution of a partial differential equation known as the Fokker-Planck equation describes the…
The aim of this contribution is to study the particle dynamics in a storage ring under the influence of noise. Some simplified stochastic beam dynamics problems are treated by solving the corresponding Fokker-Planck equations numerically.
We consider the Langevin equation with multiplicative noise term which depends on time and space. The corresponding Fokker-Planck equation in Stratonovich approach is investigated. Its formal solution is obtained for an arbitrary…
Agreement of the probability current with the resolving paths requires a simplified forward equation for the (unique) Ito paths. Their increments are the most probable rather than expected ones, in accordance with an existing extremum…
We derive the generalized Fokker-Planck equation associated with the Langevin equation (in the Ito sense) for an overdamped particle in an external potential driven by multiplicative noise with an arbitrary distribution of the increments of…
The solutions of SDEs with multiplicative noise are not Markovian. On a coarse-grained time scale they still are, but only in the "anti-Ito" case. This allows a simple computation of the most likely path. Any density peak moves along such a…
This paper focuses on the long-term behavior of solutions to nonlinear stochastic Fokker-Planck equations driven by common noise, where the drift term has a linear dependence on the measure. These equations, which describe the evolution of…
The solutions of stochastic differential equations without an external drift are stochastically invariant under time reversal. This singles out the "anti-Ito" integral.
The Fokker-Planck equation has been very useful for studying dynamic behavior of stochastic differential equations driven by Gaussian noises. In this paper, we derive a Fractional Fokker--Planck equation for the probability distribution of…
We study the kinetic Fokker-Planck equation perturbed by a stochastic Vlasov force term. When the noise intensity is not too large, we solve the Cauchy Problem in a class of well-localized (in velocity) functions. We also show that, when…
Langevin equation with a multiplicative stochastic force is considered. That force is uncorrelated, it has the L\'evy distribution and the power-law intensity. The Fokker-Planck equations, which correspond both to the It\^o and Stratonovich…
We consider the solvability of the Fokker-Planck equation with both time-dependent drift and diffusion coefficients by means of the similarity method. By the introduction of the similarity variable, the Fokker-Planck equation is reduced to…
The Fokker-Planck equation has been very useful for studying dynamic behavior of stochastic differential equations driven by Gaussian noises. However, there are both theoretical and empirical reasons to consider similar equations driven by…
We consider a simple quantum system subjected to a classical random force. Under certain conditions it is shown that the noise-averaged Wigner function of the system follows an integro-differential stochastic Liouville equation. In the…
A time-discrete approach avoids the assumption of an 'integration sense'. New path increments (in a short time step) are complete in the order of that step, and not Gaussian distributed when the noise is multiplicative; this eliminates an…
