Exact results for the diffusion in a class of asymmetric bistable potentials

We solve the Fokker-Planck equations with drifts deriving from a class of asymmetric nonharmonic potentials which include bistable cases. An analytical expression for the probability current over the potential barrier is obtained. Finally, we compare our e ...

Exact solution for the diffusion in bistable potentials

Max-Olivier Hongler

We solve analytically the Fokker-Planck equation for a one-parameter family of symmetric, attractive, nonharmonic potentials which include double-well situations. The exact knowledge of the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues allows us to fully discuss the tran ...
