Previous work showed how moving particles that rest along their trajectory lead to time-nonlocal advection–dispersion equations. If the waiting times have infinite mean, the model equation contains a fractional time derivative of order between 0 and 1. In this article, we develop a new...

In this paper we introduce and analyze a class of diffusion type equations related to certain non-Markovian stochastic processes. We start from the forward drift equation which is made non-local in time by the introduction of a suitable chosen memory kernel K(t). The resulting non-Markovian...

Continuous time random walks (CTRWs) are used in physics to model anomalous diffusion, by incorporating a random waiting time between particle jumps. In finance, the particle jumps are log-returns and the waiting times measure delay between transactions. These two random variables (log-return...

A continuous time random walk model is presented with long-tailed waiting time density that approaches a Gaussian distribution in the continuum limit. This example shows that continuous time random walks with long time tails and diffusion equations with a fractional time derivative are in...

Coupled continuous time random walks (CTRWs) model normal and anomalous diffusion of random walkers by taking the sum of random jump lengths dependent on the random waiting times immediately preceding each jump. They are used to simulate diffusion-like processes in econophysics such as stock...

This paper is dedicated to the modelling of textured images influenced by fractional derivatives for texture detection. As most of the images contain textures, texture analysis becomes the most important for image understanding and it is a key solution for many computer vision applications....

In this paper, an unsupervised segmentation methodology is proposed for remotely sensed images by using Fractional Differential (FD) based texture analysis model and Iterative Self-Organizing Data Analysis Technique Algorithm (ISODATA). Essentially, image segmentation is used to assign unique...

In this article, the authors discuss a dynamic procedure that makes fractional derivatives emerge in the time asymptotic limit of non-Poisson processes. The authors find that two-state fluctuations, with an inverse power-law distribution of waiting times, finite first moment, and divergent...

The main aim of this work is to price defaultable bonds. In order to achieve this goal we link first hitting densities of Brownian motion with functionals of controlled diffusions. From a practical point of view examples of diffusions with this property are: Brownian motion with linear drift,...
