An interesting anomaly in the diffusion process with an apparently negative diffusion coefficient defined through the mean-square displacement in a one-dimensional quantum molecular chain model is shown. Nevertheless, the system satisfies the H-theorem so that the second law of thermodynamics is satisfied. The reason why the “diffusion constant” becomes negative is due to the effect of the phase mixing process, which is a characteristic result of the one-dimensionality of the system. We illustrate the situation where this negative “diffusion constant” appears.

The time-dependent barrier passage of a Brownian particle diffusing in the fractional damping environment is studied by using the reactive flux method. Characteristic quantities such as the rate constant and stationary transmission coefficient are computed for a thimbleful of insight into the barrier escaping dynamics. Results show that the barrier recrossing of the fractional damping reactive system is obviously weakened. And the nonmonotonic varying of the stationary transmission coefficient reveals a close dependence of the escaping process on the fractional damping properties. The time-dependent barrier passage of one-dimensional fractional damping reactive process is found very similar to the two-dimensional non-Ohmic case.

Abstract This paper deals with the unique continuation of solutions for a one-dimensional anomalous diffusion equation with Caputo derivative of order α ∈ (0, 1). Firstly, the uniqueness of solutions to a lateral Cauchy problem for the anomalous diffusion equation is given via the Theta function method, from which we further verify the unique continuation principle.

Abstract The thermodynamic approach is applied for the description of normal and anomalous diffusion of one-dimensional maps on a grid of unit cells. The characteristic entropy functions are calculated. For the anomalous cases, the locations of the critical lines are determined.
