Local diffusion coefficients in disordered systems such as spin glass systems and living cells are highly heterogeneous and may change over time. Such a time-dependent and spatially heterogeneous environment results in irreproducibility of single-particle-tracking measurements. Irreproducibility of time-averaged observables has been theoretically studied in the context of weak ergodicity breaking in stochastic processes. Here, we provide rigorous descriptions of equilibrium and non-equilibrium…

Non-self-averaging behaviors and ergodicity in quenched trap models with finite system sizes.

Here it is reported on non-self-averaging phenomena in quenched trap models with finite system sizes, where the periodic and the reflecting boundary conditions are considered.

Anomalous diffusion, nonergodicity, and ageing for exponentially and logarithmically time-dependent diffusivity: striking differences for massive versus massless particles

We investigate a diffusion process with a time-dependent diffusion coefficient, both exponentially increasing and decreasing in time, D(t)=D0e±2αt . For this (hypothetical) nonstationary diffusion…

Biased continuous-time random walks for ordinary and equilibrium cases: facilitation of diffusion, ergodicity breaking and ageing.

It is demonstrated that in the presence of a drift CTRWs with α < 1 are ageing and non-ergodic in the sense of the non-equivalence of their ensemble and time averaged displacement characteristics in the limit of lag times much shorter than the trajectory length.

Non-Gaussianity, population heterogeneity, and transient superdiffusion in the spreading dynamics of amoeboid cells.

The current analysis of single-cell motions of the Dictyostelium discoideum amoeboid cells is implemented for quantifying diffusive behaviours in other living-matter systems, in particular, when effects of active transport, non-Gaussian displacements, and heterogeneity of the population are involved in the dynamics.

Infinite invariant density in a semi-Markov process with continuous state variables.

It is shown that the infinite invariant density plays an important role in determining the distribution of time averages, and two scaling laws describing the density for the state value are found, which accumulates in the vicinity of zero in the long-time limit.

Unveiling diffusive states from center-of-mass trajectories in glassy dynamics.

Applying the proposed method to detect alternating diffusive states undergoing a free diffusive state and a trapped state described by the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process to molecular dynamics simulation data of supercooled liquids, it is shown that trapped states last for a long time and the sojourn-time distribution for trapped states becomes a power-law form as the temperature approaches the glass temperature.

Infinite ergodic theory for three heterogeneous stochastic models with application to subrecoil laser cooling.

We compare ergodic properties of the kinetic energy for three stochastic models of subrecoil-laser-cooled gases. One model is based on a heterogeneous random walk (HRW), another is an HRW with…

Occupation time statistics of the fractional Brownian motion in a finite domain.

We study statistics of occupation times for a fractional Brownian motion (fBm), which is a typical model of a non-Markov process. Due to the non-Markovian nature, recurrence times to the origin…

Distributional behaviors of time-averaged observables in the Langevin equation with fluctuating diffusivity: Normal diffusion but anomalous fluctuations.

It is found that temporally heterogeneous environments provide anomalous fluctuations of time-averaged diffusivity, which have relevance to large fluctuations of the diffusion coefficients obtained by single-particle-tracking trajectories in experiments.

Langevin equation with fluctuating diffusivity: A two-state model.

A Langevin equation with diffusivity fluctuating between a fast and a slow state is investigated and the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the time-averaged MSD is utilized and it is shown that the RSD exhibits slow relaxation as a signature of the long-time correlation in the fluctuating Diffusivity.

Transition from distributional to ergodic behavior in an inhomogeneous diffusion process: Method revealing an unknown surface diffusivity.

It is shown that the ensemble-averaged mean-square displacements increase linearly with time when the desorption rate from the surface is finite, which is valid even when the diffusion on thesurface is anomalous (subdiffusion).
