Densities of Lévy walks and the corresponding fractional equations

Abstract: In this paper we derive explicit formulas for the densities of Levy walks. Our results cover both jump-first and wait-first scenarios. The obtained densities solve certain fractional differential equations involving fractional material derivative operators. In the particular case, when the stability index is rational, the densities can be represented as an integral of Meijer G function. This allows to efficiently evaluate them numerically. Our results show perfect agreement with the Monte Carlo simulations.
