We investigate diffusion of excitation in one- and two-dimensional lattices with random on-site energies and deterministic long-range couplings (hopping) inversely proportional to the distance. Three regimes of diffusion are observed in…
We investigate the ensemble and time averaged mean squared displacements for particle diffusion in a simple model for disordered media by assuming that the local diffusivity is both fluctuating in time and has a deterministic average growth…
Particles driven through a periodic potential by an external constant force are known to exhibit a pronounced peak of the diffusion around a critical force that defines the transition between locked and running states. It has recently been…

The relation between relaxation and diffusion is investigated in a Hamiltonian system of globally coupled rotators. Diffusion is anomalous if and only if the system is going towards equilibrium. The anomaly in diffusion is not anomalous…
Energetic particles spectra at interplanetary shocks often exhibit a power law within a narrow momentum range softening at higher energy. We introduce a transport equation accounting for particle acceleration and escape with diffusion…
The Fokker-Planck equation for the probability $f(r,t)$ to find a random walker at position $r$ at time $t$ is derived for the case that the the probability to make jumps depends nonlinearly on $f(r,t)$. The result is a generalized form of…
We study time series concerning rare events. The occurrence of a rare event is depicted as a jump of constant intensity always occurring in the same direction, thereby generating an asymmetric diffusion process. We consider the case where…
We derive a general pattern of the nonexponential, two-power-law relaxation from the compound subordination theory of random processes applied to anomalous diffusion. The subordination approach is based on a coupling between the very large…
Subordinated processes play an important role in modeling anomalous diffusion-type behavior. In such models the observed constant time periods are described by the subordinator distribution. Therefore, on the basis of the observed time…
