Diffusive transport in many complex systems features a crossover between anomalous diffusion at short times and normal diffusion at long times. This behavior can be mathematically modeled by cutting off (tempering) beyond a mesoscopic correlation time the power-law correlations between the increments of fractional Brownian motion. Here, we investigate such tempered fractional Brownian motion confined to a finite interval by reflecting walls. Specifically, we explore how the tempering of the long-time correlations affects the strong accumulation and depletion of particles near reflecting boundaries recently discovered for untempered fractional Brownian motion. We find that exponential tempering introduces a characteristic size for the accumulation and depletion zones but does not affect the functional form of the probability density close to the wall. In contrast, power-law tempering leads to more complex behavior that differs between the superdiffusive and subdiffusive cases.

We present the analysis of the first passage time problem on a finite interval for the generalized Wiener process that is driven by Levy stable noises. The complexity of the first passage time statistics (mean first passage time, cumulative first passage time distribution) is elucidated together with a discussion of the proper setup of corresponding boundary conditions that correctly yield the statistics of first passages for these non-Gaussian noises. The validity of the method is tested numerically and compared against analytical formulae when the stability index $alpha$ approaches 2, recovering in this limit the standard results for the Fokker-Planck dynamics driven by Gaussian white noise.
Fractional Brownian motion is a Gaussian stochastic process with stationary, long-time correlated increments and is frequently used to model anomalous diffusion processes. We study numerically fractional Brownian motion confined to a finite interval with reflecting boundary conditions. The probability density function of this reflected fractional Brownian motion at long times converges to a stationary distribution showing distinct deviations from the fully flat distribution of amplitude $1/L$ in an interval of length $L$ found for reflected normal Brownian motion. While for superdiffusion, corresponding to a mean squared displacement $langle X^2(t)ranglesimeq t^{alpha}$ with $1<alpha<2$, the probability density function is lowered in the centre of the interval and rises towards the boundaries, for subdiffusion ($0<alpha<1$) this behaviour is reversed and the particle density is depleted close to the boundaries. The mean squared displacement in these cases at long times converges to a stationary value, which is, remarkably, monotonically increasing with the anomalous diffusion exponent $alpha$. Our a priori surprising results may have interesting consequences for the application of fractional Brownian motion for processes such as molecule or tracer diffusion in the confined of living biological cells or organelles, or other viscoelastic environments such as dense liquids in microfluidic chambers.
Tempered fractional Brownian motion is revisited from the viewpoint of reduced fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Many of the basic properties of the tempered fractional Brownian motion can be shown to be direct consequences or modifications of the properties of fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Mixed tempered fractional Brownian motion is introduced and its properties are considered. Tempered fractional Brownian motion is generalised from single index to two indices. Finally, tempered multifractional Brownian motion and its properties are studied.
We find the exact winding number distribution of Riemann-Liouville fractional Brownian motion for large times in two dimensions using the propagator of a free particle. The distribution is similar to the Brownian motion case and it is of Cauchy type. In addition we find the winding number distribution of fractal time process, i.e., time fractional Fokker-Planck equation, in the presence of finite size winding center.
Fractional Brownian motion is a non-Markovian Gaussian process indexed by the Hurst exponent $Hin [0,1]$, generalising standard Brownian motion to account for anomalous diffusion. Functionals of this process are important for practical applications as a standard reference point for non-equilibrium dynamics. We describe a perturbation expansion allowing us to evaluate many non-trivial observables analytically: We generalize the celebrated three arcsine-laws of standard Brownian motion. The functionals are: (i) the fraction of time the process remains positive, (ii) the time when the process last visits the origin, and (iii) the time when it achieves its maximum (or minimum). We derive expressions for the probability of these three functionals as an expansion in $epsilon = H-tfrac{1}{2}$, up to second order. We find that the three probabilities are different, except for $H=tfrac{1}{2}$ where they coincide. Our results are confirmed to high precision by numerical simulations.
