Based on the physical approach to anomalous diffusion provided by the seminal Scher-Montroll-Weiss continuous time random walk, we analyze both natural and modified-form distributed-order time fractional diffusion equations and compare the two approaches. The mean squared displacement is obtained and its limiting behavior analyzed. We derive the connection between the Wiener process, described by the conventional Langevin equation and the dynamics encoded by the distributed-order time fractional diffusion equation in terms of a generalized subordination of time. A detailed analysis of the multifractal properties of distributed-order diffusion equations is provided.}, language = {en} } @article{SandevChechkinKantzetal.2015, author = {Sandev, Trifce and Chechkin, Aleksei V. and Kantz, Holger and Metzler, Ralf}, title = {Diffusion and fokker-planck-smoluchowski equations with generalized memory kernel}, series = {Fractional calculus and applied analysis : an international journal for theory and applications}, volume = {18}, journal = {Fractional calculus and applied analysis : an international journal for theory and applications}, number = {4}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1311-0454}, doi = {10.1515/fca-2015-0059}, pages = {1006 -- 1038}, year = {2015}, abstract = {We consider anomalous stochastic processes based on the renewal continuous time random walk model with different forms for the probability density of waiting times between individual jumps. In the corresponding continuum limit we derive the generalized diffusion and Fokker-Planck-Smoluchowski equations with the corresponding memory kernels. We calculate the qth order moments in the unbiased and biased cases, and demonstrate that the generalized Einstein relation for the considered dynamics remains valid. The relaxation of modes in the case of an external harmonic potential and the convergence of the mean squared displacement to the thermal plateau are analyzed.}, language = {en} }
