Levy flight as a robotic search pattern
Levy flights have been recently found to approximate the trajectories of animal foragers in their search for resources and food. Levy flights have proved to be effective in searching tasks because of their characteristic combination of long trajectories followed by bursts of short trajectories. In …

Interacting Stochastic Processes: from Viciousness to Caging to Force Chains
… We also define and study a system of N vicious Levy flights in which any two Levy flights crossing one another annihilate each other. The average mean-squared displacement of a Levy flight is not proportional to time, but scales with what is known as the Levy index divided by two. In both cases, …

Environmental constraints on human memory
… displays a fractal pattern known as Lévy flights. Lévy flights or Lévy distributions are positively skewed; heavy-tailed distributions that contain many more extremely large distances than would be expected from a Gaussian distribution and have a slope of (1 < ≤ 3). Although, any number in …
