Abstract

We find the exact winding number distribution of Riemann–Liouville fractional Brownian motion for large times in two dimensions using the propagator of a free particle. The distribution is similar to the Brownian-motion case and is of Cauchy type. In addition we find the winding number distribution of the fractal-time process, i.e. the time-fractional Fokker–Planck equation, in the presence of a finite-size winding center.
