Two scaling laws are investigated, which are devoted to link the diffusion coefficient to the thermodynamic properties for the athermal hard-sphere system, over the wide range of packing fraction covering the stable and metastable regimes. It is found that the most relevant control parameter is...

Transport properties of glass-formers near glass transition reflect the varying degrees of the sensitivity of the solid-like dynamics and structures with respect to temperature, depending on their fragility. Notably, however, most glasses resume Arrehenius transport behavior upon onset of...

A mixture of relativistic gases of non-disparate rest masses in a Schwarzschild metric is studied on the basis of a relativistic Boltzmann equation in the presence of gravitational fields. A BGK-type model equation of the collision operator of the Boltzmann equation is used in order to compute...

We recently demonstrated that standard fixed-time lattice random-walk models cannot be modified to represent properly the biased diffusion processes in more than two dimensions. The origin of this fundamental limitation appears to be the fact that traditional Monte Carlo moves do not allow for...

We consider a diffusion process (X <Subscript> t </Subscript>)<Subscript> t ≥ 0</Subscript>, with drift b(x) and diffusion coefficient σ(x). At discrete times t <Subscript> k </Subscript> = k δ for k from 1 to M, we observe noisy data of the sample path, <InlineEquation ID="IEq1"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$${Y_{k\delta}=X_{k\delta}+\varepsilon_{k}}$$</EquationSource > </InlineEquation> .

In the preceding paper, using the so-called flow variable representation, we reported the formulation of the Korteweg-deVries (KdV) and the Burgers equations to express mass transports. The transport theories were constructed by pertaining to correspondence with the Toda lattices. Our present...

We study the significant entropy changes in supercooling and glass transition by developing a two (H and L) state cluster model, where the H-state represents the clusters with the coordination number z being larger than the reference size zR and the L-state those with zzR, respectively. We...

We present a novel method of computing the asymptotic drift velocity V and the diffusion coefficient D of a particle diffusing in an arbitrary periodic medium. We focus on a particular case of 1D systems with the nearest-neighbor transition rates and explain in detail how our method works in...

An efficient methodology of estimation of parameters in the diffusion coefficient of the stochastic differential equation (SDE) is presented in this work. The methodology is based on the concept of quadratic variation of a stochastic process and on some classical numerical tools such as spline...
