Random motions in inhomogeneous media

Space inhomogeneous random motions of particles on the line and in the plane are considered in the paper. The changes of the movement direction are driven by a Poisson process. The particles are assumed to move according to a finite velocity field that depends on a spatial argument. The explicit dis...

Descripción
Sumario:Space inhomogeneous random motions of particles on the line and in the plane are considered in the paper. The changes of the movement direction are driven by a Poisson process. The particles are assumed to move according to a finite velocity field that depends on a spatial argument. The explicit distribution of particles is obtained in the paper for the case of dimension 1 in terms of characteristics of the governing equations. In the case of dimension 2, the distribution is obtained if a rectifying diffeomorphism exists. © 2008 American Mathematical Society.
