Strong frequency dependence is unlikely in diffusive or over-damped systems. When exceptions do occur, such as in the case of stochastic resonance, it signals an interesting underlying phenomenon. We find that such a case appears in the…

In inhomogeneous environments, the correct expression of the diffusive flux is often not given by the Fick's law $\Gamma = - D \nabla n $. The most general hydrodynamic equation modelling diffusion is indeed the Fokker-Planck Equation…
Anomalous diffusion is an established phenomenon but still a theoretical challenge in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Physical models are built incrementally, and the most recent and most general family is based on the fractional…
