For $N=1$ the system reduces to the comb model where subdiffusion takes place with the transport exponent $1/2$. We present an exact analytical evaluation of the transport exponent of anomalous diffusion for finite and infinite number of backbones. We show that for an arbitrarily large but finite number of backbones the transport exponent does not change. Contrary to that, for an infinite number of backbones, the transport exponent depends on the fractal dimension of the backbone structure.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-10-22T10:41:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05.40.Fb", "87.19.L-", "82.40.-g" ], "keywords": [ "fractal grid comb", "fractional diffusion", "infinite number", "transport exponent depends", "grid comb model" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevE.91.032108", "journal": "Physical Review E", "year": 2015, "month": "Mar", "volume": 91, "number": 3, "pages": "032108" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015PhRvE..91c2108S" } } }
