dc.descriptionAn analytic formulation of memory-possessing random walks introduced recently [Cressoni et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 070603 (2007) and Schütz and Trimper, Phys. Rev. E 70, 045101 (2004)] for Alzheimer behavior and related phenomena is provided along with exact solutions on the basis of Fokker-Planck equations. The solution of a delay-differential equation derived for the purpose is shown to produce log-periodic oscillations and to coincide rather accurately with previously published computer simulation results. Generalizations along several directions are also constructed on the basis of the formalism.
