Abstract: We consider a diffusion process X in a random potential V of the form Vx=Sx−deltax where delta is a positive drift and S is a strictly stable process of index alphain(1,2) with positive jumps. Then the diffusion is transient and Xt/logalphat converges in law towards an exponential distribution. This behaviour contrasts with the case where V is a drifted Brownian motion and provides an example of a transient diffusion in a random potential which is as "slow" as in the recurrent setting.


The article considers a diffusion process \(X_t\) in a random potential, given by a quadratic potential perturbed by a stable process with index \(\alpha \in (1,2)\). It is proved that \(X_t/\log^{\alpha}t\) converges in law to an exponential random variable.
