Diffusion coefficient in periodic and random potentials.
Transport and diffusion of particles on modulated surfaces is a nonequilibrium problem which is receiving a great deal of attention due to its technological applications, but analytical calculations are scarce. In earlier work, we developed a perturbative approach to begin to provide an analytic platform for predictions about particle trajectories over such surfaces. In some temperature and for...
متن کاملFractional diffusion in periodic potentials
Fractional, anomalous diffusion in space-periodic potentials is investigated. The analytical solution for the effective fractional diffusion coefficient in an arbitrary periodic potential is obtained in closed form in terms of two quadratures. This theoretical result is corroborated by numerical simulations for different shapes of the periodic potential. Normal and fractional spreading processe...
متن کاملDiffusion in periodic, correlated random forcing landscapes
We study the dynamics of a Brownian particle in a strongly correlated quenched random potential defined as a periodically extended (with period L) finite trajectory of a fractional Brownian motion with arbitrary Hurst exponent ∈ H (0, 1). While the periodicity ensures that the ultimate long time behavior is diffusive, the generalized Sinai potential considered here leads to a strong logarithmic...
متن کاملLifshitz Tails for Periodic Plus Random Potentials
We prove that the integrated density of states p(2) for a potential W,~ = Vper + V,o has Lifshitz tails where Vp~ r is a periodic potential with reflection symmetry and V,o is a random potential, e.g., of the form V~ = Z q,((.o) f(x-i).
متن کاملDiffusion in tilted periodic potentials: Enhancement, universality, and scaling.
An exact analytical expression for the effective diffusion coefficient of an overdamped Brownian particle in a tilted periodic potential is derived for arbitrary potentials and arbitrary strengths of the thermal noise. Near the critical tilt (threshold of deterministic running solutions) a scaling behavior for weak thermal noise is revealed and various universality classes are identified. In co...
