We consider a particular type of continuous time random walk where the jump lengths between subsequent waiting times are correlated. In a continuum limit, the process can be defined by an integrated Brownian motion subordinated by an inverse α-stable subordinator. We compute the mean square displacement of the proposed process and show that the process exhibits subdiffusion when 0<α<1/3, normal diffusion when α=1/3, and superdiffusion when 1/3<α<1. The time-averaged mean square displacement is also employed to show weak ergodicity breaking occurring in the proposed process. An extension to the fractional case is also considered.

In this work, a generalization of continuous time random walk is considered, where the waiting times among the subsequent jumps are power-law correlated with kernel function M(t)=tρ(ρ>-1). In a continuum limit, the correlated continuous time random walk converges in distribution a subordinated process. The mean square displacement of the proposed process is computed, which is of the form 〈x2(t)〉∝tH=t1/(1+ρ+1/α). The anomy exponent H varies from α to α/(1+α) when -1<ρ<0 and from α/(1+α) to 0 when ρ>0. The generalized diffusion equation of the process is also derived, which has a unified form for the above two cases.

AbstractWe study analytically and numerically the fractional Langevin equation driven by the fractional Brownian motion. The fractional derivative is in Caputo’s sense and the fractional order in this paper is α = 2 − 2H, where H ∈ ($\tfrac{1} {2} $, 1) is the Hurst parameter (or, index). We give numerical schemes for the fractional Langevin equation with or without an external force. From the figures we can find that the mean square displacement of the fractional Langevin equation has the property of the anomalous diffusion. When the fractional order tends to an integer, the diffusion reduces to the normal diffusion.

AbstractIn this paper, we have investigated the Langevin and Brownian equations on fractal time sets using Fα-calculus and shown that the mean square displacement is not varied linearly with time. We have also generalized the classical method of deriving the Fokker–Planck equation in order to obtain the Fokker–Planck equation on fractal time sets.

Motivated from the central role of the mean-square displacement and its second time-derivative – that is the velocity autocorrelation function in the description of Brownian motion, we revisit the physical meaning of its first time-derivative.

That both normal and anomalous chaotic diffusions are suppressed by the presence of quenched disorder for a large class of maps was established by G. Radons.1 In this paper, we consider simple maps (which exhibit normal diffusion) modified by discrete disorder. By decomposing the mean square displacement (MSD) σ2(t) of the system into three terms, namely, [Formula: see text], we find that the MSD of the random walk which corresponds to disorder, [Formula: see text], enhances that of the original unmodified map, [Formula: see text] and that the term 2σ01(t), which describes the correlation between the diffusion fronts of the previous two diffusive processes, just essentially cancels the sum of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. In consequence, the trajectories of the system are effectively localized. In this formalism, exact numerical calculations without any round-off error can be achieved, the numerical errors coming only from the limited sampling of the initial conditions.

This paper shows a novel calculation of the mean square displacement of a classical Brownian particle in a relativistic thermal bath. Also, the thermodynamic properties of a nondegenerate simple relativistic gas are reviewed in terms of a treatment performed in velocity space.

Using discrete wavelets, a novel technique is developed to estimate turbulent diffusion coefficients and power exponents from single Lagrangian particle trajectories. The technique differs from the classical approach (Davis (1991)’s technique) because averaging over a statistical ensemble of the mean square displacement (<X2>) is replaced by averaging along a single Lagrangian trajectory X(t) = {X(t), Y(t)}. Metzler et al. (2014) have demonstrated that for an ergodic (for example, normal diffusion) flow, the mean square displacement is <X2> = limT→∞τX2(T,s), where τX2 (T, s) = 1/(T − s) ∫0T−s(X(t+Δt) − X(t))2 dt, T and s are observational and lag times but for weak non-ergodic (such as super-diffusion and sub-diffusion) flows <X2> = limT→∞≪τX2(T,s)≫, where ≪…≫ is some additional averaging. Numerical calculations for surface drifters in the Black Sea and isobaric RAFOS floats deployed at mid depths in the California Current system demonstrated that the reconstructed diffusion coefficients were smaller than those calculated by Davis (1991)’s technique. This difference is caused by the choice of the Lagrangian mean. The technique proposed here is applied to the analysis of Lagrangian motions in the Black Sea (horizontal diffusion coefficients varied from 105 to 106 cm2/s) and for the sub-diffusion of two RAFOS floats in the California Current system where power exponents varied from 0.65 to 0.72. RAFOS float motions were found to be strongly non-ergodic and non-Gaussian.

MD simulation has been performed to learn the microscopic mechanism of diffusion of ions in the Li2SiO3 system. The motion of lithium ions can be explained by the trapping model, where lithium is trapped in the polyhedron and moves with fluctuation of the coordination number. The mean square displacement of lithium was found to correlate well with the net changes in coordination number.
