Types of Anomalous Diffusion
Of interest within the scientific community, when one an anomalous-type diffusion process, is to then understand the underlying mechanism which has caused it. There are a number of frameworks which give rise to anomalous diffusion that are currently in vogue within the statistical physics community. These are continuous-time random walks (CTRW) and fractional Brownian motion (fBm), and diffusion on fractal topology.
