Negative mobility and multiple current reversals induced by colored thermal fluctuation in an asymmetric periodic potential

The phenomena of negative mobility (NM) and multiple current reversals (MCR) are investigated numerically in an asymmetric periodic potential with a Gaussian colored noise under the influence of a periodic driving and a constant bias. Two cases have been considered: the case of noise-induced normal transport and the case of noise-induced anomalous transport. The results indicate: (1) within tailored parameter regimes, a robust and wide range of NM can be obtained for a fixed regime of correlation time; (2) nonzero correlation time can induce and diminish MCR; (3) the asymmetry can induce and significantly facilitate the anomalous transport of inertial Brownian particle.
