Generalized Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes

Abstract: We solve a physically significant extension of a classic problem in the theory of diffusion, namely the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process [G. E. Ornstein and L. S. Uhlenbeck, Phys. Rev. 36, 823, (1930)]. Our generalised Ornstein-Uhlenbeck systems include a force which depends upon the position of the particle, as well as upon time. They exhibit anomalous diffusion at short times, and non-Maxwellian velocity distributions in equilibrium. Two approaches are used. Some statistics are obtained from a closed-form express… Show more

“…Also, if the potential is time dependent, the energies of the particles will not be constant. The existence of such "anomalous diffusion" has been demonstrated for classical dynamics with spatially and temporally fluctuating potentials [5][6][7][8][9][10]. These works claim universal behavior in the sense that for generic random potentials the diffusion coefficient exhibits a universal power-law dependence on instantaneous velocity v, such that D(v) ∼ |v| −3 as |v| → ∞.…”

“…In the literature, this behavior is considered as universal [5,7,8,10] for any dimension given that the correlation function of the potential is sufficiently differentiable. For dimensions two and higher, as shown above, this is indeed the case, however for one-dimensional systems other behaviors are possible.…”

“…While originally proposed to describe stationary Gauss-Markov process [2][3][4][5], a number of generalizations of the OrnsteinUhlenbeck (OU) process have been suggested under less restrictive assumptions [6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Indeed, non-Gaussian processes of the OU-type are becoming popular given their flexibility in modelling financial data [7].…”

“…This scaling is responsible for the interesting effects discussed in the following. The addition of a linear force to the logarithmic potential breaks this scaling and leads to a very different behavior [30][31][32][33]. ) and their time average (thick red) for the Brownian particle moving in an asymptotically logarithmic potential U (x) = (U0/2) ln(1 + x 2 ) (top panel, inset).…”

“…However, neither the super-aging behavior nor the long-time limit Eq. (46) can be obtained from the equilibrium distribution: both require the infinite covariant density (31). Figure 3 shows the normalized correlation function (48) for different values of t 0 .…”
