We consider a shear flow of a scale invariant homogeneous Gaussian random velocity field which does not depend on coordinates in the direction of the flow. We investigate a heat advection coming from a Gaussian random homogeneous source. We…

We develop an information-theoretic approach to isoperimetric inequalities based on entropy dissipation under heat flow. By viewing diffusion as a noisy information channel, we measure how mutual information about set membership decays over…

The Levy walk model is studied in the context of the anomalous heat conduction of one dimensional systems. In this model the heat carriers execute Levy-walks instead of normal diffusion as expected in systems where Fourier's law holds. Here…

In this paper we study the (nonlocal) torsional rigidity in the ambient space of random walk spaces. We get the relation of the (nonlocal) torsional rigidity of a set $\Omega$ with the spectral $m$-heat content of $\Omega$, what gives rise…
