Langevin dynamics for a Lévy walk with memory.

Memory effects, sometimes, cannot be neglected. In the framework of continuous-time random walk, memory effect is modeled by the correlated waiting times. In this paper, we derive the two-point probability distribution of the correlated waiting time process, as well as the one of its inverse process, and present the Langevin description of Lévy walk with memory. We call this model a Lévy-walk-type model with correlated waiting times. Based on the built Langevin picture, the properties of aging and nonstationary are discussed. This Langevin system exhibits sub-ballistic superdiffusion 〈x^{2}(t)〉∝t^{2-α^{2}β/αβ+1} if the friction force is involved, while it displays superballistic diffusion or hyperdiffusion 〈x^{2}(t)〉∝t^{2+α/αβ+1} if there is no friction. The parameter 0<α<1 is for the white α-stable Lévy noise, while 0≤β≤1 is to characterize the strength of the correlation of waiting times; β=0 corresponds to uncorrelated case and β=1 the strongest correlation. It is discovered that the correlation of waiting times suppresses the diffusion behavior whether a friction is involved or not. The stronger the correlation of waiting times becomes, the slower the diffusion is. In particular, the correlation function, correlation coefficient, ergodicity, and scaling property of the corresponding stochastic process are also investigated.
