Abstract

Intermittent stochastic processes appear in a wide field, such as chemistry, biology, ecology, and computer science. This paper builds up the theory of intermittent continuous time random walk (CTRW) and L\'{e}vy walk, in which the particles are stochastically reset to a given position with a resetting rate rr. The mean squared displacements of the CTRW and L\'{e}vy walks with stochastic resetting are calculated, uncovering that the stochastic resetting always makes the CTRW process localized and L\'{e}vy walk diffuse slower. The asymptotic behaviors of the probability density function of L\'evy walk with stochastic resetting are carefully analyzed under different scales of xx, and a striking influence of stochastic resetting is observed.
