Time dependent random fields on spherical non-homogeneous surfaces

We introduce a class of isotropic time dependent random fields on the non-homogeneous sphere which is represented by a time-changed spherical Brownian motion of order nu is an element of (0, 1]. We can capture some anisotropies in Cosmology with this model. This process is a time-changed rotational diffusion (TRD) or the stochastic solution to the equation involving the spherical Laplace operator and a time-fractional derivative of order nu. TRD is a diffusion on the non-homogeneous sphere and therefore, the spherical coordinates given by TRD represent the coordinates of a non-homogeneous sphere by means of which an isotropic random field is indexed. The time dependent random fields we present in this work are therefore realized through composition and can be viewed as isotropic random field on randomly varying sphere. Published by Elsevier B.V.
