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.4 pages, 1 figStatistical MechanicsAnalytic Formulation, Exact Solutions, and Generalizations of the Elephant and the Alzheimer Random Walkstext
