Group superballistic diffusion: bimodal velocity inducing coexistence of two states in a corrugated plane.

We consider anomalous diffusion of a particle moving in a tilted periodic potential in the presence of Lévy noise and nonlinear friction. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we have found some interesting characteristics of diffusion in such a nonlinear system: when the noise intensity is weak and the external force is close to the critical value at which local minima of the potential just vanish, the nonmonotonic behavior of the effective diffusion index and the superballistic diffusion are observed. This is due to the bimodal nature of the velocity distribution, and thus the test particles exist in either a running state or a long-tailed behind state in the spatial coordinate; the latter is disintegrated into small pieces of the probability peaks. We provide a relation between the group diffusion coefficient and the phase diffusion coefficient. It is shown that the distance between the above two-state centers increasing with time plays the definitive role in the superballistic group diffusion.
