Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2012 Mar;85(3 Pt 1):031138. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.85.031138. Epub 2012 Mar 26.

Abstract

We obtain exact results for fractional equations of Fokker-Planck type using the evolution operator method. We employ exact forms of one-sided Lévy stable distributions to generate a set of self-reproducing solutions. Explicit cases are reported and studied for various fractional order of derivatives, different initial conditions, and for different versions of Fokker-Planck operators.
