Subordinated Langevin Equations for Anomalous Diffusion in External Potentials - Biasing and Decoupled Forces

The role of external forces in systems exhibiting anomalous diffusion is discussed on the basis of the describing Langevin equations. Since there exist different possibilities to include the effect of an external field the concept of {\it biasing} and {\it decoupled} external fields is introduced. Complementary to the recently established Langevin equations for anomalous diffusion in a time-dependent external force-field [{\it Magdziarz et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 101}, 210601 (2008)}] the Langevin formulation of anomalous diffusion in a decoupled time-dependent force-field is derived.

Continuous Time Random Walks with Internal Dynamics and Subdiffusive Reaction-Diffusion Equations

We formulate the generalized master equation for a class of continuous time random walks in the presence of a prescribed deterministic evolution between successive transitions. This formulation is exemplified by means of an advection-diffusion and a jump-diffusion scheme. Based on this master equation, we also derive reaction-diffusion equations for subdiffusive chemical species, using a mean field approximation.

Anomalous Diffusion of particles with inertia in external potentials

Recently a new type of Kramers-Fokker-Planck Equation has been proposed [R. Friedrich et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 96}, 230601 (2006)] describing anomalous diffusion in external potentials. In the present paper the explicit cases of a harmonic potential and a velocity-dependend damping are incorporated. Exact relations for moments for these cases are presented and the asymptotic behaviour for long times is discussed. Interestingly the bounding potential and the additional damping by itself lead to a subdiffussive behaviour, while acting together the particle becomes localized for long times.

Langevin Approach to Fractional Diffusion Equations including Inertial Effects

In recent years, several fractional generalizations of the usual Kramers-Fokker-Planck equation have been presented. Using an idea of Fogedby [H.C. Fogedby, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 50}, 041103 (1994), we show how these equations are related to Langevin equations via the procedure of subordination.

Anomalous Diffusion of Inertial, Weakly Damped Particles

The anomalous (i.e. non-Gaussian) dynamics of particles subject to a deterministic acceleration and a series of 'random kicks' is studied. Based on an extension of the concept of continuous time random walks to position-velocity space, a new fractional equation of the Kramers-Fokker-Planck type is derived. The associated collision operator necessarily involves a fractional substantial derivative, representing important nonlocal couplings in time and space. For the force-free case, a closed solution is found and discussed.

A note on the forced Burgers equation

We obtain the exact solution for the Burgers equation with a time dependent forcing, which depends linearly on the spatial coordinate. For the case of a stochastic time dependence an exact expression for the joint probability distribution for the velocity fields at multiple spatial points is obtained. A connection with stretched vortices in hydrodynamic flows is discussed.
