Velocity autocorrelation of a free particle driven by a Mittag-Leffler noise: fractional dynamics and temporal behaviors

Abstract

We investigate the dynamical phase diagram of the generalized Langevin equation of the free particle driven by a Mittag-Leffler noise and show critical curves and a critical value of the exponent parameter of the Mittag-Leffler function that mark different dynamical regimes. By considering that the modeling of a Mittag-Leffer memory kernel corresponds to a power-law second-order memory kernel, we show that the generalized Langevin equation of the velocity autocorrelation function (VACF) is transformed in a fractional Langevin equation. In the superdiffusive case our results exhibit oscillations and negative correlations of the VACF that are not provided by the usual power-law noise model.
