In this work, we explore both the ordinary $q$-Gaussian distribution and a new one defined here, determining both their mean and variance, and we use them to construct solutions of the $q$-deformed diffusion differential equation. This…

We study the evolution of probability distribution functions of returns, from the tick data of the Korean treasury bond (KTB) futures and the S$&$P 500 stock index, which can be described by means of the Fokker-Planck equation. We show that…

Using available data from the New York stock market (NYSM) we test four different bi-parametric models to fit the correspondent volume-price distributions at each $10$-minute lag: the Gamma distribution, the inverse Gamma distribution, the…

We compare systematically several classes of stochastic volatility models of stock market fluctuations. We show that the long-time return distribution is either Gaussian or develops a power-law tail, while the short-time return distribution…

The stability of $q$-Gaussian distributions as particular solutions of the linear diffusion equation and its generalized nonlinear form, $\pderiv{P(x,t)}{t} = D \pderiv{^2 [P(x,t)]^{2-q}}{x^2}$, the \emph{porous-medium equation}, is…

Many studies on biological and soft matter systems report the joint presence of a linear mean-squared displacement and a non-Gaussian probability density exhibiting, for instance, exponential or stretched-Gaussian tails. This phenomenon is…
