We study the effects of scattering lengths on L\'evy walks in quenched one-dimensional random and fractal quasi-lattices, with scatterers spaced according to a long-tailed distribution. By analyzing the scaling properties of the random-walk…

The fractional material derivative appears as the fractional operator that governs the dynamics of the scaling limits of L\'evy walks - a stochastic process that originates from the famous continuous-time random walks. It is usually defined…

Multiple scattering of light by resonant vapor is characterized by L\'evy-type superdiffusion with a single-step size distribution $p(x)\propto 1/x^{1+\alpha}$. We investigate L\'evy flight of light in a hot rubidium vapor…

L\'{e}vy flight models whose jumps have infinite moments are mathematically used to describe the superdiffusion in complex systems. Exponentially tempering the Levy measure of L\'{e}vy flights leads to the tempered stable L\'{e}vy processes…

Functionals of a stochastic process Y(t) model many physical time-extensive observables, e.g. particle positions, local and occupation times or accumulated mechanical work. When Y(t) is a normal diffusive process, their statistics are…

Levy walks are random processes with an underlying spatiotemporal coupling. This coupling penalizes long jumps, and therefore Levy walks give a proper stochastic description for a particle's motion with broad jump length distribution. We…
