Exact calculation оf effective diffusion constant in fluctuating periodic potentials

Autors: 
Dubkov Aleksandr Aleksandrovich, Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod
Abstract: 

Exact formula for diffusion coefficient оf Brownian particle moving in modulated by white noise periodic field is obtained. As it is shown the acceleration of diffusion in comparison with а free diffusion case takes place for аn arbitrary potential profile. Calculations оf effective diffusion constant for different periodic potentials are performed.
