The one-dimensional random walk between two reflecting walls is considered from two different points of view: the first, as a particular case of jumps between neighbouring, discrete states; the second, as a system that obeys a generalized diffusion equation. By performing the suitable limits, the identity of the two results is pointed out and a physical application is presented.

Abstract
The one-dimensional random walk between two reflecting walls is considered from two different points of view: the first, as a particular case of jumps between neighbouring, discrete states; the second, as a system that obeys a generalized diffusion equation. By performing the suitable limits, the identity of the two results is pointed out and a physical application is presented.File in questo prodotto:
