We analyze the mean squared displacement of a Brownian particle in a medium with a spatially varying local diffusivity which is assumed to be periodic. When the system is asymptotically diffusive the mean squared displacement,…
We investigate the ensemble and time averaged mean squared displacements for particle diffusion in a simple model for disordered media by assuming that the local diffusivity is both fluctuating in time and has a deterministic average growth…
Brownian particles suspended in disordered crowded environments often exhibit non-Gaussian normal diffusion (NGND), whereby their displacements grow with mean square proportional to the observation time and non-Gaussian statistics. Their…
The mixing time of a graph is an important metric, which is not only useful in analyzing connectivity and expansion properties of the network, but also serves as a key parameter in designing efficient algorithms. We introduce a new notion…
In this paper, the area swept under the workload graph is analyzed: with $\{Q(t) : t\ge0\}$ denoting the stationary workload process, the asymptotic behavior of \[\pi_{T(u)}(u):={\mathbb{P}}\biggl(\int_0^ {T(u)}Q(r)\,\mathrm{d}r>u\biggr)\]…
Exponential, and not Gaussian, decay of probability density functions was studied by Laplace in the context of his analysis of errors. Such Laplace propagators for the diffusive motion of single particles in disordered media were recently…
A Langevin process diffusing in a periodic potential landscape has a time dependent diffusion constant which means that its average mean squared displacement (MSD) only becomes linear at late times. The long time, or effective diffusion…
Nonergodicity observed in single-particle tracking experiments is usually modeled by transient trapping rather than spatial disorder. We introduce models of a particle diffusing in a medium consisting of regions with random sizes and random…
We consider a transient Brownian motion reflected obliquely in a two-dimensional wedge. A precise asymptotic expansion of Green's functions is found in all directions. To this end, we first determine a kernel functional equation connecting…
We consider waves propagating in a randomly layered medium with long-range correlations. An example of such a medium is studied in \citeMS and leads, in particular, to an asymptotic travel time described in terms of a fractional Brownian…
We study the asymptotic and pre-asymptotic diffusive properties of Brownian particles in channels whose section varies periodically in space. The effective diffusion coefficient $D_{\mathrm{eff}}$ is numerically determined by the asymptotic…
Real thermal motion of gas molecules, free electrons, etc., at long time intervals (much greater than mean free-flight time) possesses, contrary to its popular mathematical models, essentially non-Gaussian statistics. A simple proof of this…
We consider a Brownian motion on a general graph, that starts at time t=0 from some vertex O and stops at time t somewhere on the graph. Denoting by g the last time when O is reached, we establish a simple expression for the Laplace…
The partial differential equation of Gaussian diffusion is generalized by using the time-fractional derivative of distributed order between 0 and 1, in both the Riemann-Liouville (R-L) and the Caputo (C) sense. For a general distribution of…
We study the motion of Brownian particle in modulated media in the strong damping limit by using {\em toy model}, with special emphasis on the transition from localise to diffusive behavior. By using model potential we have seen the…
We study fractional Laplace motion (FLM) obtained from subordination of fractional Brownian motion to a gamma process, in the presence of an external drift that acts on the composite process or of an internal drift acting solely on the…
We study periodic Brownian paths, wrapped around the surface of a cylinder. One characteristic of such a path is its width square, $w^2$, defined as its variance. Though the average of $w^2$ over all possible paths is well known, its full…
