Abstract
Recursive relations are developed for computing the multipoint correlation functions of a particle undergoing a biased continuous-time random walk (CTRW) in an external potential. Two- and three-point correlation functions are calculated for waiting-time distributions with an anomalous power-law profile t(-alpha-1), 0 < alpha < 1, on intermediate time scales with a crossover to an exponential long time decay. Comparison of the CTRW with the Brownian harmonic oscillator model (Gaussian process) illustrates how higher-order correlation functions may be used to distinguish between dynamical models that have the same two-point correlation function.
