2 Scaling limits Continuous time random walks R d X 2 X 3 X 1 J 1 J 2 J 3 J 4 J 5 X 4 X 5 t The CTRW is a random walk with jumps X n separated by random waiting times J n. The random vectors (X n, J n) are i.i.d. Erkan Nane (Auburn University) Fractional Cauchy Problems February 17, / 39
3 Scaling limits Waiting time process J n s are nonnegative iid. T n = J 1 + J J n is the time of the nth jump. N(t) = max{n : T n t} is the number of jumps by time t >. Suppose P(J n > t) Ct β for < β < 1. Scaling limit c 1/β T [ct] = D(t) is a β-stable subordinator. Since {T n t} = {N(t) n} c β N(ct) = E(t) = inf{u > : D(u) > t}. The self-similar limit E(ct) d = c β E(t) is non-markovian. Erkan Nane (Auburn University) Fractional Cauchy Problems February 17, / 39
4 Scaling limits Continuous time random walks (CTRW) S(n) = X X n particle location after n jumps has scaling limit c 1/2 S([ct]) = B(t) a Brownian motion. Number of jumps has scaling limit c β N(ct) = E(t). CTRW is a random walk subordinated to (a renewal process) N(t) S(N(t)) = X 1 + X X N(t). S(N(t)) is particle location at time t >. CTRW scaling limit is a subordinated process: c β/2 S(N(ct)) = (c β ) 1/2 S(c β c β N(ct)) (c β ) 1/2 S(c β E(t)) = B(E(t)). The self-similar limit B(E(ct)) d = c β/2 B(E(t)) is non-markovian.

7 Scaling limits CTRW with serial dependence Particle jumps X n = j= c jz n j with Z n IID. Short range dependence: n=1 E(X nx ) < = the usual limit and PDE. Long range dependence: If Z n has light tails, subordinated fractional Brownian motion limit B H (E(t)). Hahn, Kobayashi and Umarov (21) established a governing equation. For heavy tails, subordinated linear fractional stable motion L α,h (E(t)). Open problems: Governing equations, dependent waiting times. Due to Meerschaert, Nane and Xiao (29).

Caputo fractional derivative of order < β < 1; D β t g(t) = 1 t Γ(1 β) dg(s) ds ds (t s) β (1) was invented to properly handle initial values (Caputo 1967). Laplace transform of D β t g(t) is s β g(s) s β 1 g() incorporates the initial value in the same way as the first derivative.

Nigmatullin (1986) gave a physical derivation of fractional diffusion β t u(t, x) = L x u(t, x); u(, x) = f (x) (2) Zaslavsky (1994) used this to model Hamiltonian chaos. (2) has the unique solution u(t, x) = E x [f (X (E(t)))] = p(s, x)g E(t) (s)ds where p(t, x) = E x [f (X (t))] and E(t) = inf{τ > : D τ > t}, D(t) is a stable subordinator with index β and E(e sd(t) ) = e tsβ (Baeumer and Meerschaert, 22).
