TY - JOUR A1 - Pavlyukevich, Ilya A1 - Li, Yongge A1 - Xu, Yong A1 - Chechkin, Aleksei V. T1 - Directed transport induced by spatially modulated Levy flights JF - Journal of physics : A, Mathematical and theoretical N2 - In this paper we study the dynamics of a particle in a ratchet potential subject to multiplicative alpha-stable Levy noise, alpha is an element of(0, 2), in the limit of a noise amplitude epsilon -> 0. We compare the dynamics for Ito and Marcus multiplicative noises and obtain the explicit asymptotics of the escape time in the wells and transition probabilities between the wells. A detailed analysis of the noise-induced current is performed for the Seebeck ratchet with a weak multiplicative noise for alpha is an element of(0, 2].
