Anomalous diffusion : from basics to applications : proceedings of the XIth Max Born Symposium held at Lądek Zdrój, Poland, 20-27 May, 1998 /

This collection of articles gives a nice overview of the fast growing field of diffusion and transport. The area of non-Browman statistical mechanics has many extensions into other fields like biology, ecology, geophysics etc. These tutorial lectures address e.g. Lvy flights and walks, diffusion on...
