## TL;DR

This paper proves that certain deterministic fast-slow systems with intermittent dynamics converge to a stochastic differential equation driven by an alpha-stable Levy process, extending the understanding of superdiffusive limits in dynamical systems.

## Contribution

It establishes the convergence of fast-slow deterministic systems to alpha-stable Levy-driven SDEs and verifies assumptions for Pomeau-Manneville type maps.

## Key findings

- Convergence to alpha-stable Levy-driven SDEs for specific dynamical systems
- Verification of assumptions for intermittent Pomeau-Manneville maps
- Extension of superdiffusive limit theory to deterministic systems

## Abstract

We consider deterministic fast-slow dynamical systems on $\mathbb{R}^m\times Y$ of the form \[   \begin{cases}   x_{k+1}^{(n)} = x_k^{(n)} + n^{-1} a(x_k^{(n)}) + n^{-1/\alpha} b(x_k^{(n)}) v(y_k)\;,\quad   y_{k+1} = f(y_k)\;,   \end{cases} \] where $\alpha\in(1,2)$. Under certain assumptions we prove convergence of the $m$-dimensional process $X_n(t)=   x_{\lfloor nt \rfloor}^{(n)}$ to the solution of the stochastic differential equation \[   \mathop{}\!\mathrm{d} X = a(X)\mathop{}\!\mathrm{d} t + b(X) \diamond \mathop{}\!\mathrm{d} L_\alpha   \; ,   \] where $L_\alpha$ is an $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process and $\diamond$ indicates that the stochastic integral is in the Marcus sense. In addition, we show that our assumptions are satisfied for intermittent maps $f$ of Pomeau-Manneville type.
