Tamed Feynman-Kac diffusion processes: Killing-branching intertwine

Piotr Garbaczewski, Mariusz Żaba

Relaxation to equilibrium of a drifted Brownian motion is quantified by a transition probability density function, whose main (multiplicative) entry is an inferred Feynman-Kac kern…

Killing versus branching: Unexplored facets of diffusive relaxation

P. Garbaczewski, M. Zaba

We analyze the relaxation dynamics of Feynman-Kac path integral kernel functions in terms of branching diffusion processes with killing. This sheds new light on the admissible path…

P. Garbaczewski, M. Żaba

The nonequilibrium Fokker-Planck dynamics with a non-conservative drift field, in dimension , can be related with the non-Hermitian quantum mechanics in a real scalar pote…

Levy processes in bounded domains: Path-wise reflection scenarios and signatures of confinement

Piotr Garbaczewski, Mariusz Żaba

We discuss an impact of various (path-wise) reflection-from-the barrier scenarios upon confining properties of a paradigmatic family of symmetric -stable Lévy processes, whose p…

Levy flights in steep potential wells: Langevin modeling versus direct response to energy landscapes

P. Garbaczewski, M. Zaba

We investigate the non-Langevin relative of the Lévy-driven Langevin random system, under an assumption that both systems share a common (asymptotic, stationary, steady-state) targ…

Piotr Garbaczewski, Mariusz Zaba

We investigate signatures of convergence for a sequence of diffusion processes on a line, in conservative force fields stemming from superharmonic potentials , $m=2n…

Fractional Laplacians in bounded domains: Killed, reflected, censored and taboo Lévy flights

P. Garbaczewski, V. A. Stephanovich

The fractional Laplacian , has many equivalent (albeit formally different) realizations as a nonlocal generator of a family of -stable stochastic proce…

Fractional Laplacians and Levy flights in bounded domains

Piotr Garbaczewski

We address Lévy-stable stochastic processes in bounded domains, with a focus on a discrimination between inequivalent proposals for what a boundary data-respecting fractional Lapla…

Killing (absorption) versus survival in random motion

Piotr Garbaczewski

We address diffusion processes in a bounded domain, while focusing on somewhat unexplored affinities between the presence of absorbing and/or inaccessible boundaries. For the Brown…

Low-cost approximate reconstructing of heterogeneous microstructures

W. Olchawa, R. Piasecki, R. Wiśniowski +1

We propose an approximate reconstruction of random heterogeneous microstructures using the two-exponent power-law (TEPL). This rule originates from the entropic descriptor (ED) tha…

Entropic descriptor based reconstruction of three-dimensional porous microstructures using a single cross-section

D. Frączek, W. Olchawa, R. Piasecki +1

The simple entropic method to statistical reconstructing of heterogeneous three-dimensional media from a single two-dimensional image is briefly reported. We apply the entropic des…

On multi-scale percolation behaviour of the effective conductivity for the lattice model with interacting particles

R. Wiśniowski, W. Olchawa, D. Frączek +1

Recently, the effective medium approach using 2x2 basic cluster of model lattice sites to predict the conductivity of interacting droplets has been presented by Hattori et al. To m…

On multi-scale percolation behaviour of the effective conductivity for the lattice model

W. Olchawa, R. Wiśniowski, D. Frączek +1

Macroscopic properties of heterogeneous media are frequently modelled by regular lattice models, which are based on a relatively small basic cluster of lattice sites. Here, we exte…

Speeding up of microstructure reconstruction: II. Application to patterns of poly-dispersed islands

W. Olchawa, R. Piasecki

We report a fast, efficient and credible statistical reconstruction of any two-phase patterns of islands of miscellaneous shapes and poly-dispersed in sizes. In the proposed multi-…

Decomposable multiphase entropic descriptor

D. Fraczek, R. Piasecki

To quantify degree of spatial inhomogeneity for multiphase materials we adapt the entropic descriptor (ED) of a pillar model developed to greyscale images. To uncover the contribut…

Path-wise versus kinetic modeling for equilibrating non-Langevin jump-type processes

Mariusz Żaba, Piotr Garbaczewski, Vladimir Stephanovich

We discuss two independent methods of solution of a master equation whose biased jump transition rates account for long jumps of Lévy-stable type and nonetheless admit a Boltzmanni…
