Fractional kinetics in random/complex media
-
Gianni Pagnini
Abstract
In this chapter, we consider a randomly-scaled Gaussian process and discuss a number of applications to model fractional diffusion. Actually, this approach can be understood as a Gaussian diffusion in a medium characterized by a population of scales. This interpretation supports the idea that fractional diffusion emerges from standard diffusion occurring in a complex medium.
