Collective Diffusion and a Random Energy Landscape
  Starting from a master equation in a quantum Hamiltonian form and a coupling to a heat bath we derive an evolution equation for a collective hopping process under the influence of a stochastic energy landscape. There results different equations in case of an arbitrary occupation number per lattice site or in a system under exclusion. Based on scaling arguments it will be demonstrated that both systems belong below the critical dimension $d_c$ to the same universality class leading to anomalous diffusion in the long time limit. The dynamical exponent $z$ can be calculated by an $\epsilon = d_c-d$ expansion. Above the critical dimension we discuss the differences in the diffusion constant for sufficient high temperatures. For a random potential we find a higher mobility for systems with exclusion.
