Abstract
Almost all the media the particles move in are non-static, one of which is the most common expanding or contracting (by a scale factor) non-static medium discussed in this paper. Depending on the expected resolution of the studied dynamics and the amplitude of the displacement caused by the non-static media, sometimes the non-static behaviors of the media can not be ignored. In this paper, we build the model describing Lévy walks in one-dimension uniformly non-static media, where the physical and comoving coordinates are connected by scale factor. We derive the equation governing the probability density function of the position of the particles in comoving coordinate. Using the Hermite orthogonal polynomial expansions, some statistical properties are obtained, such as mean squared displacements (MSDs) in both coordinates and kurtosis. For some representative non-static media and Lévy walks, the asymptotic behaviors of MSDs in both coordinates are analyzed in detail. The stationary distributions and mean first passage time for some cases are also discussed through numerical simulations.
