Lévy flights in confining environments: Random paths and their statistics

Abstract: We analyze a specific class of random systems that are driven by a symmetric Lévy stable noise. In view of the Lévy noise sensitivity to the confining "potential landscape" where jumps take place (in other words, to environmental inhomogeneities), the pertinent random motion asymptotically sets down at the Boltzmann-type equilibrium, represented by a probability density function (pdf) ρ * (x) ∼ exp[−Φ(x)]. Since there is no Langevin representation of the dynamics in question, our main goal here is to establish… Show more

“…However, it is not at all obvious, albeit anticipated in Ref. [14], that the path-wise route gives rise to the same evolution of the probability distribution as that coming out from a direct integration of the master equation (1). A reliable validity test is necessary here.…”

“…[14] was to infer a direct non-Langevin path-wise description of random motion, on the sole basis of the pre-defined master equation. The task has been accomplished by means of a properly tailored Gillespie's algorithm.…”
