ABSTRACT
The motion of a single active particle in one dimension with quenched disorder under the external force is investigated. Within the tailored parameter range, anomalous diffusion that displays weak ergodicity breaking is observed, i.e., non-ergodic subdiffusion and non-ergodic superdiffusion. This non-ergodic anomalous diffusion is analyzed through the time-dependent probability distributions of the particle's velocities and positions. Its origin is attributed to the relative weights of the locked state (predominant in the subdiffusion state) and running state (predominant in the superdiffusion state). These results may contribute to understanding the dynamical behavior of self-propelled particles in nature and the extraordinary response of nonlinear dynamics to the externally biased force.
