Abstract
The properties of stationary solutions of the one-dimensional fractional Einstein--Smoluchowski equation with a potential of the form x 2m+2, m = 1, 2,..., and of the Riesz spatial fractional derivative of order α, 1 ≤ α ≤ 2, are studied analytically and numerically. We show that for 1 ≤ α < 2, the stationary distribution functions have power-law asymptotic approximations decreasing as x −(α+2m+1) for large values of the argument. We also show that these distributions are bimodal.
