Stochastic pathway to anomalous diffusion

Klafter, J., Blumen, A., Shlesinger, M. F.·1987·Physical Review A

Abstract

We present an appraisal of differential-equation models for anomalous diffusion, in which the time evolution of the mean-square displacement is 〈${r}^{2}$(t)〉\ensuremath{\sim}${t}^{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$ with \ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\ne}1. By comparison, continuous-time random walks lead via generalized master equations to an integro-differential picture. Using L\'evy walks and a kernel which couples time and space, we obtain a generalized picture for anomalous transport, which provides a unified framework both for dispersive (\ensuremath{\gamma}<1) and for enhanced diffusion (\ensuremath{\gamma}>1).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
