Consider two independent Goldstein-Kac telegraph processes X1(t) and X2(t) on the real line ℝ. The processes Xk(t), k = 1, 2, describe stochastic motions at finite constant velocities c1 > 0 and c2 > 0 that start at the initial time instant t = 0 from the origin of ℝ and are controlled by two independent homogeneous Poisson processes of rates λ1 > 0 and λ2 > 0, respectively. We obtain a closed-form expression for the probability distribution function of the Euclidean distance ρ(t) = |X1(t) - X2(t)|, t > 0, between these processes at an arbitrary time instant t > 0. Some numerical results are also presented.

We obtain the long-time behaviour to the variance of the distribution process associated with the solution of the telegraph equation. To this end, we use a version of the Karamata-Feller Tauberian theorem.

In this paper, we develop an accurate and efficient Legendre wavelets method for numerical solution of the well known time-fractional telegraph equation. In the proposed method we have employed both of the operational matrices of fractional integration and differentiation to get numerical solution of the time-telegraph equation. The power of this manageable method is confirmed. Moreover the use of Legendre wavelet is found to be accurate, simple and fast.

Numerical solutions of a non-Fickian diffusion equation belonging to a hyperbolic type are presented in one space dimension. The Brownian particle modelled by this diffusion equation is subjected to a symmetric periodic potential whose spatial shape can be varied by a single parameter. We consider a numerical method which consists of applying Laplace transform in time; we then obtain an elliptic diffusion equation which is discretized using a finite difference method. We analyze some aspects of the convergence of the method. Numerical results for particle density, flux and mean-square-displacement (covering both inertial and diffusive regimes) are presented.

In this paper a random motion on the surface of the 3-sphere whose probability law is a solution of the telegraph equation in spherical coordinates is presented. The connection of equations governing the random motion with Maxwell equations is examined together with some qualitative features of its sample paths. Finally Brownian motion on the 3-sphere is derived as the limiting process of a random walk with latitude-changing probabilities.
