Population splitting, trapping, and non-ergodicity in heterogeneous diffusion processes.
We consider diffusion processes with a spatially varying diffusivity giving rise to anomalous diffusion. Such heterogeneous diffusion processes are analysed for the cases of exponential, power-law, and logarithmic dependencies of the diffusion coefficient on the particle position. Combining analytical approaches with stochastic simulations, we show that the functional form of the space-dependen...
متن کاملParticle invasion, survival, and non-ergodicity in 2D diffusion processes with space-dependent diffusivity.
We study the thermal Markovian diffusion of tracer particles in a 2D medium with spatially varying diffusivity D(r), mimicking recently measured, heterogeneous maps of the apparent diffusion coefficient in biological cells. For this heterogeneous diffusion process (HDP) we analyse the mean squared displacement (MSD) of the tracer particles, the time averaged MSD, the spatial probability density...
متن کاملIdentifying ergodicity breaking for fractional anomalous diffusion: Criteria for minimal trajectory length.
In this paper, we study ergodic properties of α-stable autoregressive fractionally integrated moving average (ARFIMA) processes which form a large class of anomalous diffusions. A crucial practical question is how long trajectories one needs to observe in an experiment in order to claim that the analyzed data are ergodic or not. This will be solved by checking the asymptotic convergence to 0 of...
متن کاملIn vivo anomalous diffusion and weak ergodicity breaking of lipid granules.
Combining extensive single particle tracking microscopy data of endogenous lipid granules in living fission yeast cells with analytical results we show evidence for anomalous diffusion and weak ergodicity breaking. Namely we demonstrate that at short times the granules perform subdiffusion according to the laws of continuous time random walk theory. The associated violation of ergodicity leads ...
متن کاملAnomalous diffusion models and their properties: non-stationarity, non-ergodicity, and ageing at the centenary of single particle tracking.
Modern microscopic techniques following the stochastic motion of labelled tracer particles have uncovered significant deviations from the laws of Brownian motion in a variety of animate and inanimate systems. Such anomalous diffusion can have different physical origins, which can be identified from careful data analysis. In particular, single particle tracking provides the entire trajectory of ...
