Abstract

In order to approximate heat diffusion in two dimensions, we view diffusion processes as the random motion of particles and model the behavior of each particle with a continuous-time Markov chain. The infinitesimal generator of each Markov chain is characterized by the distances between lattice points imposed on a given two-dimensional surface. We derive requirements for the mean and the covariance matrix of a Markov chain and present simulations to demonstrate how a large number of Markov chains behave in the proposed framework on an exemplary lattice.
