چکیده
In this paper, we present an integrodifferential diffusion equation for continuous-time random walk that is valid for a generic waiting time probability density function. Using this equation, we also study diffusion behaviors for a couple of specific waiting time probability density functions such as exponential and a combination of power law and generalized Mittag-Leffler function. We show that for the case of the exponential waiting time probability density function, a normal diffusion is generated and the probability density function is Gaussian distribution. In the case of the combination of a power law and generalized Mittag-Leffler waiting probability density function, we obtain the subdiffusive behavior for all the time regions from small to large times and probability density function is non-Gaussian distribution.

Single integrodifferential wave equation for a Lévy walk.
We derive the single integrodifferential wave equation for the probability density function of the position of a classical one-dimensional Lévy walk with continuous sample paths. This equation involves a classical wave operator together with memory integrals describing the spatiotemporal coupling of the Lévy walk. It is valid at all times, not only in the long time limit, and it does not involv...
متن کاملReaction-subdiffusion and reaction-superdiffusion equations for evanescent particles performing continuous-time random walks.
Starting from a continuous-time random-walk (CTRW) model of particles that may evanesce as they walk, our goal is to arrive at macroscopic integrodifferential equations for the probability density for a particle to be found at point r at time t given that it started its walk from r_{0} at time t=0 . The passage from the CTRW to an integrodifferential equation is well understood when the particl...
متن کاملFractional diffusion in the multiple-trapping regime and revision of the equivalence with the continuous-time random walk.
We investigate the macroscopic diffusion of carriers in the multiple-trapping (MT) regime, in relation with electron transport in nanoscaled heterogeneous systems, and we describe the differences, as well as the similarities, between MT and the continuous-time random walk (CTRW). Diffusion of free carriers in MT can be expressed as a generalized continuity equation based on fractional time deri...
متن کاملOracle Continuous Time Random Walks
Abstract. In a continuous time random walk (CTRW), a random waiting time precedes each random jump. The CTRW model is useful in physics, to model diffusing particles. Its scaling limit is a time-changed process, whose densities solve an anomalous diffusion equation. Some applications require the anticipating version, an oracle continuous time random walk (OCTRW), where the next jump after any g...
متن کاملPath probabilities of continuous time random walks
Employing the path integral formulation of a broad class of anomalous diffusion processes, we derive the exact relations for the path probability densities of these processes. In particular, we obtain a closed analytical solution for the path probability distribution of a Continuous Time Random Walk (CTRW) process. This solution is given in terms of its waiting time distribution and short time ...
