Traditionally, the quantum Brownian motion is described by Fokker-Planck or diffusion equations in terms of quasi-probability distribution functions, e.g., Wigner functions. These often become singular or negative in the full quantum…
Diffusion processes have been applied with great success to model the dynamics of large populations throughout science, in particular biology. One advantage is that they bridge two different scales: the microscopic and the macroscopic one.…
