It is shown that a quantum Levy process in a box leads to a problem involving topological constraints in space, and its treatment in the framework of the path integral formalism with the Levy measure is suggested. The eigenvalue problem for the infinite potential well is properly defined and solved. An analytical expression for the evolution operator is obtained in the path integral presentation, and the path integral takes the correct limit of the local quantum mechanics with topological constraints. An example of the Levy process in oscillating walls is also considered in the adiabatic approximation.

We investigate multiple scattering of near-resonant light in a Doppler-broadened atomic vapor. We experimentally characterize the length distribution of the steps between successive scattering events. The obtained power law is characteristic of a sup erdiffusive behavior, where rare but very long steps (Levy flights) dominate the transport properties.

Among Markovian processes, the hallmark of Levy flights is superdiffusion, or faster-than-Brownian dynamics. Here we show that Levy laws, as well as Gaussians, can also be the limit distributions of processes with long range memory that exhibit very slow diffusion, logarithmic in time. These processes are path-dependent and anomalous motion emerges from frequent relocations to already visited sites. We show how the Central Limit Theorem is modified in this context, keeping the usual distinction between analytic and non-analytic characteristic functions. A fluctuation-dissipation relation is also derived. Our results may have important applications in the study of animal and human displacements.

We derive the generalized Fokker-Planck equation associated with a Langevin equation driven by arbitrary additive white noise. We apply our result to study the distribution of symmetric and asymmetric L{e}vy flights in an infinitely deep potential we ll. The fractional Fokker-Planck equation for L{e}vy flights is derived and solved analytically in the steady state. It is shown that L{e}vy flights are distributed according to the beta distribution, whose probability density becomes singular at the boundaries of the well. The origin of the preferred concentration of flying objects near the boundaries in nonequilibrium systems is clarified.
Properties of random and fluctuating systems are often studied through the use of Gaussian distributions. However, in a number of situations, rare events have drastic consequences, which can not be explained by Gaussian statistics. Considerable effor ts have thus been devoted to the study of non Gaussian fluctuations such as Levy statistics, generalizing the standard description of random walks. Unfortunately only macroscopic signatures, obtained by averaging over many random steps, are usually observed in physical systems. We present experimental results investigating the elementary process of anomalous diffusion of photons in hot atomic vapours. We measure the step size distribution of the random walk and show that it follows a power law characteristic of Levy flights.
Data from a long time evolution experiment with Escherichia Coli and from a large study on copy number variations in subjects with european ancestry are analyzed in order to argue that mutations can be described as Levy flights in the mutation space. These Levy flights have at least two components: random single-base substitutions and large DNA rearrangements. From the data, we get estimations for the time rates of both events and the size distribution function of large rearrangements.
