ABSTRACT

We study the dynamics of a particle in a fluid from a generalized Langevin equation (GLE) with a frictional exponential memory kernel and hydrodynamic interactions. By using Laplace analysis we obtain the analytical expressions for the velocity autocorrelation function (VACF) and mean square displacement (MSD) of the particle. Our results show that, in the strictly asymptotic time limit, the dynamics of the particle correspond to a particle ruled by a GLE with a Dirac delta friction memory kernel and hydrodynamic interactions. However, at intermediate times the dynamical behavior is qualitatively different due to the presence of a characteristic time in the frictional exponential memory kernel. Remarkably, the VACF exhibits oscillations and negative correlation regimes which are reminiscent of features already observed in pioneering works of molecular dynamics simulations. Moreover, ripples in the MSD appear as an emerging behavior associated with the mentioned regimes.

ABSTRACT

We investigate the dynamical phase diagram of the generalized Langevin equation of the free particle driven by a Mittag-Leffler noise and show critical curves and a critical value of the exponent parameter of the Mittag-Leffler function that mark different dynamical regimes. By considering that the modeling of a Mittag-Leffer memory kernel corresponds to a power-law second-order memory kernel, we show that the generalized Langevin equation of the velocity autocorrelation function (VACF) is transformed in a fractional Langevin equation. In the superdiffusive case our results exhibit oscillations and negative correlations of the VACF that are not provided by the usual power-law noise model.

ABSTRACT

A theoretical framework for analyzing stochastic data from single-particle tracking in viscoelastic materials and under the influence of a trapping potential is presented. Starting from a generalized Langevin equation, we found analytical expressions for the two-time dynamics of a particle subjected to a harmonic potential. The mean-square displacement and the velocity autocorrelation function of the diffusing particle are given in terms of the time lag. In particular, we investigate the subdiffusive case. Using a power-law memory kernel, exact expressions for the mean-square displacement and the velocity autocorrelation function are obtained in terms of Mittag-Leffler functions and their derivatives. The behaviors for short-, intermediate-, and long-time lags are investigated in terms of the involved parameters. Finally, the validity of usual approximations is examined.

ABSTRACT

The diffusive behavior of a harmonic oscillator driven by a Mittag-Leffler noise is studied. Using the Laplace analysis we derive exact expressions for the relaxation functions of the particle in terms of generalized Mittag-Leffler functions and its derivatives from a generalized Langevin equation. Our results show that the oscillator displays an anomalous diffusive behavior. In the strictly asymptotic limit, the dynamics of the harmonic oscillator corresponds to an oscillator driven by a noise with a pure power-law autocorrelation function. However, at short and intermediate times the dynamics has qualitative difference due to the presence of the characteristic time of the noise.

ABSTRACT

We investigate the memory effects present in the asymptotic dynamics of a classical harmonic oscillator governed by a generalized Langevin equation. Using Laplace analysis together with Tauberian theorems we derive asymptotic expressions for the mean values, variances, and velocity autocorrelation function in terms of the long-time behavior of the memory kernel and the correlation function of the random force. The internal and external noise cases are analyzed. A simple criterion to determine if the diffusion process is normal or anomalous is established.

ABSTRACT

We introduce a Mittag-Leffler correlated random force leading to anomalous diffusion. Starting from a generalized Langevin equation, and using Laplace analysis we derive exact expressions for the mean values, variances and diffusion coefficient for a free particle in terms of generalized Mittag-Leffler functions and its derivatives. The asymptotic behavior of these quantities are obtained, from which the anomalous diffusion behavior of the particle is displayed.

ABSTRACT

We study the effect of a disordered or fractal environment in the irreversible dynamics of a harmonic oscillator. Starting from a generalized Langevin equation and using Laplace analysis, we derive exact expressions for the mean values, variances, and velocity autocorrelation function of the particle in terms of generalized Mittag-Leffler functions. The long-time behaviors of these quantities are obtained and the presence of a whip-back effect is analyzed.
