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.

“The wider the range of possibilities we offer children, the more intense will be their motivations and the richer their experiences. We must widen the range of topics and goals, the types of situations we offer and their degree of structure, the kinds and combinations of resources and materials, and the possible interactions with things, peers, and adults.”
—Loris Malaguzzi (1920–1994)
“Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.”
—Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)
“Before the land rose out of the ocean, and became dry land, chaos reigned; and between high and low water mark, where she is partially disrobed and rising, a sort of chaos reigns still, which only anomalous creatures can inhabit.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
