Diffusion processes are studied theoretically for the case where the diffusion coefficient is itself a time and position dependent random function. We investigate how inhomogeneities and fluctuations of the diffusion coefficient affect the transport using a perturbative approach, with a special attention to the time scaling of the second moment. We show that correlated disorder can lead to anomalous transport and superdiffusion.

This review summarizes recent advances in our understanding of anomalous transport in spin chains, viewed through the lens of integrability. Numerical advances, based on tensor-network methods, have shown that transport in many canonical integrable s
pin chains -- most famously the Heisenberg model -- is anomalous. Concurrently, the framework of generalized hydrodynamics has been extended to explain some of the mechanisms underlying anomalous transport. We present what is currently understood about these mechanisms, and discuss how they resemble (and differ from) the mechanisms for anomalous transport in other contexts. We also briefly review potential transport anomalies in systems where integrability is an emergent or approximate property. We survey instances of anomalous transport and dynamics that remain to be understood.
Anomalous finite-temperature transport has recently been observed in numerical studies of various integrable models in one dimension; these models share the feature of being invariant under a continuous non-abelian global symmetry. This work offers a
comprehensive group-theoretic account of this elusive phenomenon. For an integrable quantum model invariant under a global non-abelian simple Lie group $G$, we find that finite-temperature transport of Noether charges associated with symmetry $G$ in thermal states that are invariant under $G$ is universally superdiffusive and characterized by dynamical exponent $z = 3/2$. This conclusion holds regardless of the Lie algebra symmetry, local degrees of freedom (on-site representations), Lorentz invariance, or particular realization of microscopic interactions: we accordingly dub it as superuniversal. The anomalous transport behavior is attributed to long-lived giant quasiparticles dressed by thermal fluctuations. We provide an algebraic viewpoint on the corresponding dressing transformation and elucidate formal connections to fusion identities amongst the quantum-group characters. We identify giant quasiparticles with nonlinear soliton modes of classical field theories that describe low-energy excitations above ferromagnetic vacua. Our analysis of these field theories also provides a complete classification of the low-energy (i.e., Goldstone-mode) spectra of quantum isotropic ferromagnetic chains.
We analyze the mean squared displacement of a Brownian particle in a medium with a spatially varying local diffusivity which is assumed to be periodic. When the system is asymptotically diffusive the mean squared displacement, characterizing the disp
ersion in the system, is, at late times, a linear function of time. A Kubo type formula is given for the mean squared displacement which allows the recovery of some known results for the effective diffusion constant $D_e$ in a direct way, but also allows an understanding of the asymptotic approach to the diffusive limit. In particular, as well as as computing the slope of a linear fit to the late time mean squared displacement, we find a formula for the constant where the fit intersects the y axis.
The probability distribution for the free energy of directed polymers in random media (DPRM) with uncorrelated noise in $d=1+1$ dimensions satisfies the Tracy-Widom distribution. We inquire if and how this universal distribution is modified in the pr
esence of spatially correlated noise. The width of the distribution scales as the DPRM length to an exponent $beta$, in good (but not full) agreement with previous renormalization group and numerical results. The scaled probability is well described by the Tracy-Widom form for uncorrelated noise, but becomes symmetric with increasing correlation exponent. We thus find a class of distributions that continuously interpolates between Tracy-Widom and Gaussian forms.
After a short excursion from discovery of Brownian motion to the Richardson law of four thirds in turbulent diffusion, the article introduces the L{e}vy flight superdiffusion as a self-similar L{e}vy process. The condition of self-similarity converts
the infinitely divisible characteristic function of the L{e}vy process into a stable characteristic function of the L{e}vy motion. The L{e}vy motion generalizes the Brownian motion on the base of the $alpha$-stable distributions theory and fractional order derivatives. The further development of the idea lies on the generalization of the Langevin equation with a non-Gaussian white noise source and the use of functional approach. This leads to the Kolmogorovs equation for arbitrary Markovian processes. As particular case we obtain the fractional Fokker-Planck equation for L{e}vy flights. Some results concerning stationary probability distributions of L{e}vy motion in symmetric smooth monostable potentials, and a general expression to calculate the nonlinear relaxation time in barrier crossing problems are derived. Finally we discuss results on the same characteristics and barrier crossing problems with L{e}vy flights, recently obtained with different approaches.
