摘要
We study diffusion on a periodic billiard table with an infinite horizon in the limit of narrow corridors. An effective trapping mechanism emerges according to which the process can be modeled by a Levy walk combining exponentially distributed trapping times with free propagation along paths whose precise probabilities we compute. This description yields an approximation of the mean squared displacement of infinite-horizon billiards in terms of two transport coefficients, which generalizes to this anomalous regime the Machta-Zwanzig approximation of normal diffusion in finite-horizon billiards.
