ABSTRACT

We first investigate the dynamical behavior of an active Brownian particle influenced by a viscoelastic memory effect characterized by a power-law kernel, under the effects of thermal and active noises. We then analyze the dynamics of an active Brownian particle confined in a harmonic trap in the presence of the same noise sources. To derive the Fokker–Planck equation for the joint probability density of the active particle, we obtain analytical solutions for the joint probability density and its moments using double Fourier transforms in the limits t≪τ, t≫τ, and τ=0. As a result, the mean squared displacement of an active Brownian particle driven by thermal noise exhibits a super-diffusive scaling of t2h+1 in the short-time regime (t≪τ). In contrast, for a particle in a harmonic trap driven by active noise, the mean squared velocity scales linearly with t when τ=0. Moreover, the higher-order moments of an active Brownian particle in a harmonic trap with thermal noise scale with t4h+2 in the long-time limit (t≫τ) and for τ=0, consistent with our analytical results.
