Stock volatility as an anomalous diffusion process by Rubén V. Arévalo, J. Alberto Conejero, Òscar Garibo-i-Orts, Alfred Peris

“…Anomalous diffusion (AD) describes transport phenomena where the mean-square displacement (MSD) of a particle does not scale linearly with time, deviating from classical diffusion. This behavior, often linked to non-equilibrium phenomena, sheds light on the underlying mechanisms in various systems, including biological and financial domains.Integrating insights from anomalous diffusion into financial analysis could significantly improve our understanding of market behaviors, similar to their impacts on biological systems. …”
