Efficiency of search for randomly distributed targets is a prominent problem in many branches of the sciences. For the stochastic process of L\'evy walks, a specific range of optimal efficiencies was suggested under variation of search…
The movement of organisms and cells can be governed by occasional long distance runs, according to an approximate L\'evy walk. For T cells migrating through chronically-infected brain tissue, runs are further interrupted by long pauses, and…

We study a porous medium-type equation whose pressure is given by a nonlocal L\'{e}vy operator associated to a symmetric jump L\'{e}vy kernel. The class of nonlocal operators under consideration appears as a generalization of the classical…
Levy walks define a fundamental concept in random walk theory which allows one to model diffusive spreading that is faster than Brownian motion. They have many applications across different disciplines. However, so far the derivation of a…
A Levy walk is a non-Markovian stochastic process in which the elementary steps of the walker consist of motion with constant speed in randomly chosen directions and for a random period of time. The time of flight is chosen from a…
The Fokker-Planck equations for stochastic dynamical systems, with non-Gaussian $\alpha-$stable symmetric L\'evy motions, have a nonlocal or fractional Laplacian term. This nonlocality is the manifestation of the effect of non-Gaussian…

The fractional laplacian is an operator appearing in several evolution models where diffusion coming from a L\'evy process is present but also in the analysis of fluid interphases. We provide an extension of a pointwise inequality that…
Fractional diffusion and Fokker-Planck equations are widely used tools to describe anomalous diffusion in a large variety of complex systems. The equivalent formulations in terms of Caputo or Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives can be…
Traditional derivation of the material time derivative of volume, surface, and line integrals relies upon the notion of a referential configuration of continuum. Such a notion, however, is artificial and, probably, somewhat misleading in…
