Non-Markovian model of subdiffusive transport with chemotaxis
Year: 2015
Type: preprint
Abstract: The purpose of this work is to propose a non-Markovian model of subdiffusive transport that involves chemotactic substance affecting the cells at all time, not only during the jump. This leads the random waiting time to be dependent on the chemotactic gradient, making the escape rates also dependent on the gradient as well as the residence time dependence. We systematically derive subdiffusive fractional master equation, then we consider the diffusive limit of the fractional master equation. We finally solve the resulted fractional subdiffusive master equation stationery and analyse the role of the chemotactic gradient in the resulted stationary density with a constant and a quadratic chemotactic gradient.
