Sokolov (3,4) ( Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kharkov, Ukraine; Freie Universitaet Berlin, Germany; Institut fur Physik Humboldt-Universitaet zu Berlin, Germany; Theoretische Polymerphysik, Universitaet Freiburg, G | Abstract: | We propose diffusion-like equations with time and space fractional derivatives of the distributed order for the kinetic description of anomalous diffusion and relaxation phenomena, whose diffusion exponent varies with time and which, correspondingly, can not be viewed as self-affine random processes possessing a unique Hurst exponent. We prove the positivity of the solutions of the proposed equations and establish the relation to the Continuous Time Random Walk theory. We show that the distributed order time fractional diffusion equation describes the sub-diffusion random process which is subordinated to the Wiener process and whose diffusion exponent diminishes in time (retarding sub-diffusion) leading to superslow diffusion, for which the square displacement grows logarithmically in time. We also demonstrate that the distributed order space fractional diffusion equation describes super-diffusion phenomena when the diffusion exponent grows in time (accelerating super-diffusion). | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0202213 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
