For a of the order of one, the exit probabilities to each edge of the interval and the exit time from the interval exhibit anomalous properties stemming from the change in the minimum number of steps to escape the interval as a function of the starting point. As a decreases, first-passage properties approach those of continuum diffusion, but non-diffusive effects remain because of residual discreteness effects8 pages, 8 figures, 2 column revtex4 formatData Analysis, Statistics and ProbabilityStatistical Mechanicstext
