Diffusion within porous media, such as biological tissues, exhibits departures from conventional Fick's laws, which could result in space-fractional diffusion. The paper considers a reaction-diffusion system with two spatial compartments --…

Usually, in a non-equilibrium setting, a current brings mass from the highest density regions to the lowest density ones. Although rare, the opposite phenomenon (known as "uphill diffusion") has also been observed in multicomponent systems,…

We consider a continuous random walk model for describing normal as well as anomalous diffusion of particles subjected to an external force when these particles diffuse in a uniformly expanding (or contracting) medium. A general equation…
We study a coupled driven system in which two species of particles are advected by a fluctuating potential energy landscape. While the particles follow the potential gradient, each species affects the local shape of the landscape in…
