arXiv:1107.2874 · doi:10.1016/j.spl.2011.12.018

Abstract

In this paper we introduce the space-fractional Poisson process whose state probabilities , , , are governed by the equations , where is the fractional difference operator found in the study of time series analysis. We explicitly obtain the distributions , the probability generating functions , which are also expressed as distributions of the minimum of i.i.d.\ uniform random variables. The comparison with the time-fractional Poisson process is investigated and finally, we arrive at the more general space-time fractional Poisson process of which we give the explicit distribution.
