Nonclassical point of view of the Brownian motion generation via fractional deterministic model

Abstract

"In this paper, we present a dynamical system based on the Langevin equation without stochastic term and using fractional derivatives that exhibit properties of Brownian motion, i.e. a deterministic model to generate Brownian motion is proposed. The stochastic process is replaced by considering an additional degree of freedom in the second-order Langevin equation. Thus, it is transformed into a system of three first-order linear differential equations, additionally α-fractional derivative are considered which allow us to obtain better statistical properties. Switching surfaces are established as a part of fluctuating acceleration. The final system of three α-order linear differential equations does not contain a stochastic term, so the system generates motion in a deterministic way. Nevertheless, from the time series analysis, we found that the behavior of the system exhibits statistics properties of Brownian motion, such as, a linear growth in time of mean square displacement, a Gaussian distribution. Furthermore, we use the detrended fluctuation analysis to prove the Brownian character of this motion."
