Marcus stochastic differential equations (SDEs) often are appropriate models for stochastic dynamical systems driven by non-Gaussian Lévy processes and have wide applications in engineering and physical sciences. The probability density of the solution to an SDE offers complete statistical information on the underlying stochastic process. Explicit formula for the Fokker–Planck equation, the governing equation for the probability density, is well-known when the SDE is driven by a Brownian motion. In this paper, we address the open question of finding the Fokker–Planck equations for Marcus SDEs in arbitrary dimensions driven by non-Gaussian Lévy processes. The equations are given in a simple form that facilitates theoretical analysis and numerical computation. Several examples are presented to illustrate how the theoretical results can be applied to obtain Fokker–Planck equations for Marcus SDEs driven by Lévy processes.

The local fractional decomposition method is applied to approximate the solutions for Fokker-Planck equations on Cantor sets with local fractional derivative. The obtained results give the present method that is very effective and simple for solving the differential equations on Cantor set.

AbstractThere is a well-known relationship between the Itô stochastic differential equations (SDEs) and the associated partial differential equations called Fokker-Planck equations, also called Kolmogorov equations. The Brownian motion plays the role of the basic driving process for SDEs. This paper provides fractional generalizations of the triple relationship between the driving process, corresponding SDEs and deterministic fractional order Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov type equations.

In this work we present the entropy functionals for dense gases that results from a maximum entropy procedure, for two levels of description. In analogy to this work, we review the case of dense mixtures. The resulting entropy functionals serve as a starting point to derive in a systematic manner, Fokker–Planck equations to model interacting Brownian particles.

Some aspects of the growth and decay of distributions of small objects, such as particles, bubbles, or droplets, that are governed by discrete rate equations, are investigated. Differential equations for the moments of the distribution are derived and are solved in an equilibrium model both for the static moments and for the approach to equilibrium. Comparisons with numerical and exact analytical results show that the method gives fairly accurate values for the moments. The method also indicates types of growth and decay problems where the replacement of the discrete equations by the continuity equation is justified. The accuracy of static solutions of various Fokker-Planck equations is also examined in the equilibrium model. It is found that a form proposed by Goodrich gives by far the best representation of the solution of the discrete equations.
