We consider the anomalous sub-diffusion of a class of Gaussian processes that can be expressed in terms of sums of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes. As a generic class of processes, we introduce a single parameter such that for any $\nu \in…

When a particle diffuses in a medium with spatially dependent friction coefficient $\alpha(r)$ at constant temperature $T$, it drifts toward the low friction end of the system even in the absence of any real physical force $f$. This…
