We find for the first time the asymptotic representation of the solution to the space dependent variable order fractional diffusion and Fokker-Planck equations. We identify a new advection term that causes ultra-slow spatial aggregation of…
We demonstrate the non-ergodicity of a simple Markovian stochastic processes with space-dependent diffusion coefficient $D(x)$. For power-law forms $D(x) \simeq|x|^{\alpha}$, this process yield anomalous diffusion of the form $\ < x^2(t)\ >…
We consider an elliptic differential operator $A_\varepsilon = - \frac{d}{dx} g(x/\varepsilon) \frac{d}{dx} + \varepsilon^{-2} V(x/\varepsilon)$, $\varepsilon > 0$, with periodic coefficients acting in $L_2(\mathbb{R})$. For the…

Amorphous solids are dynamically inhomogeneous due to in lack of translational symmetry and hence exhibit vibrational properties different from crystalline solids with anomalous low frequency vibrational density of states (VDOS) and related…
We consider periodic homogenization with localized defects for semilinear elliptic equations and systems of the type $$ \nabla\cdot\Big(\Big(A(x/\varepsilon)+B(x/\varepsilon)\Big)\nabla u(x)+c(x,u(x)\Big)=d(x,u(x)) \mbox{ in } \Omega $$…
Consider a fast-slow system of ordinary differential equations of the form $\dot x=a(x,y)+\varepsilon^{-1}b(x,y)$, $\dot y=\varepsilon^{-2}g(y)$, where it is assumed that $b$ averages to zero under the fast flow generated by $g$. We give…
For every $\alpha < \frac13$, we construct an explicit divergence-free vector field $\mathbf{b}(t,x)$ which is periodic in space and time and belongs to $C^0_t C^{\alpha}_x \cap C^{\alpha}_t C^0_x$ such that the corresponding scalar…

Diffusion behaviors of heterogeneous materials are of paramount importance in many engineering problems. Numerical models that take into account the internal structure of such materials are robust but computationally very expensive. This…
