In this article we study certain ultradiffusion equations connected with energy landscapes of exponential type. These equations are connected with the p-adic models of complex systems introduced by Avetisov et al. We show that the fundamental solutions of these equations are transition density functions of Lévy processes with state space Q n p , we also study some aspects of these processes including the first passage time problem.2000 Mathematics Subject Classification.

In this article, we study new classes of evolution equations in the p-adic context. We establish rigorously that the fundamental solutions of the homogeneous Cauchy problem, naturally associated to these equations, are transition density functions of some strong Markov processes $${\mathfrak {X}}$$
