Kramers escape rate in nonlinear diffusive media.
In this paper, we study nonlinear Kramers problem by investigating overdamped systems ruled by the one-dimensional nonlinear Fokker-Planck equation. We obtain an analytic expression for the Kramers escape rate under quasistationary conditions by employing a metastable potential and its predictions are in excellent agreement with numerical simulations. The results exhibit the anomalies due to th...
متن کاملOptimal barrier subdivision for Kramers’ escape rate
We examine the effect of subdividing the potential barrier along the reaction coordinate on Kramers’ escape rate for a model potential. Using the known supersymmetric potential approach, we show the existence of an optimal number of subdivisions that maximises the rate.
متن کاملTheory of Zipf’s Law and of General Power Law Distributions with Gibrat’s law of Proportional Growth
We summarize a book under publication with the above title written by the three present authors, on the theory of Zipf’s law, and more generally of power laws, driven by the mechanism of proportional growth. The preprint is available upon request from the authors. For clarity, consistence of language and conciseness, we discuss the origin and conditions of the validity of Zipf’s law using the t...
متن کاملEffect of Landauer’s blow torch on Kramers’ escape rate
Kinetic aspects of Landauer’s blow torch effect is investigated for a simple double well potential using the supersymmetric approach. We find that the presence of a hot region enhances the escape rate which increases as a function of its strength and width. We derive an approximate analytical expression for the escape rate as a function of the strength and width of the hot region and also as a ...
متن کاملSampling power-law distributions
Power-law distributions describe many phenomena related to rock fracture. Data collected to measure the parameters of such distributions only represent samples from some underlying population. Without proper consideration of the scale and size limitations of such data, estimates of the population parameters, particularly the exponent D, are likely to be biased. A Monte Carlo simulation of the s...
