AbstractWe survey the ‘generalized fractional Poisson process’ (GFPP). The GFPP is a renewal process generalizing Laskin’s fractional Poisson counting process and was first introduced by Cahoy and Polito. The GFPP contains two index parameters with admissible ranges 0 < β ≤ 1, α > 0 and a parameter characterizing the time scale. The GFPP involves Prabhakar generalized Mittag-Leffler functions and contains for special choices of the parameters the Laskin fractional Poisson process, the Erlang process and the standard Poisson process. We demonstrate this by means of explicit formulas. We develop the Montroll-Weiss continuous-time random walk (CTRW) for the GFPP on undirected networks which has Prabhakar distributed waiting times between the jumps of the walker. For this walk, we derive a generalized fractional Kolmogorov-Feller equation which involves Prabhakar generalized fractional operators governing the stochastic motions on the network. We analyze in d dimensions the ‘well-scaled’ diffusion limit and obtain a fractional diffusion equation which is of the same type as for a walk with Mittag-Leffler distributed waiting times. The GFPP has the potential to capture various aspects in the dynamics of certain complex systems.

The diffusion approximation for a Boltzmann–Poisson system is studied. Nonlinear relaxation type collision operator is considered. A relative entropy is used to prove useful [Formula: see text]-estimates for the weak solutions of the scaled Boltzmann equation (coupled to Poisson) and to prove the convergence of the solution toward the solution of a nonlinear diffusion equation coupled to Poisson. In one dimension, a hybrid Hilbert expansion and the contraction property of the operator allow to exhibit a convergence rate.

We consider the basic models for anomalous transport provided by the integral equation for continuous time random walk (CTRW) and by the time fractional diffusion equation to which the previous equation is known to reduce in the diffusion limit. We compare the corresponding fundamental solutions of these equations, in order to investigate numerically the increasing quality of approximation with advancing time.

Diffusion of particles in a heterogeneous system separated by a semipermeable membrane is investigated. The particle dynamics is governed by fractional diffusion equations in the bulk and by kinetic equations on the membrane, which characterizes an interface between two different media. The kinetic equations are solved by incorporating memory effects to account for anomalous diffusion and, consequently, non-Debye relaxations. A rich variety of behaviours for the particle distribution at the interface and in the bulk may be found, depending on the choice of characteristic times in the boundary conditions and on the fractional index of the modelling equations.
