Brownian motion with darning (BMD in abbreviation) is introduced and studied in [4] and [5, Chapter 7]. Roughly speaking, BMD travels across the "darning area" at infinite speed, while it behaves like a regular BM outside of this area. In…

The kinetics of a variety of transport-controlled processes can be reduced to the problem of determining the mean time needed to arrive at a given location for the first time, the so called mean first passage time (MFPT) problem. The…

The mechanism of diffusing diffusivity predicts that, in environments where the diffusivity changes gradually, the displacement distribution becomes non-Gaussian, even though the mean-squared displacement (MSD) grows linearly with time.…

For one-dimension Brownian motion in the confined system with the size $L$, the mean-squared displacement(MSD) defined by $\left \langle (x-x_0)^2 \right\rangle$ should be proportional to $t^{\alpha(t)}$. The power $\alpha(t)$ should range…
