Abstract
Structural relaxation is studied in a fractal-time random walk model i n which the waiting time distribution is given by the power law t(-1-a ). By theoretical analysis and Monte Carlo simulations, it is found th at the relaxation becomes anomalous for the case of a < 1, where the c omplex susceptibility is described by the Cole-Cole form. On the other hand, the normal Debye-type relaxation is observed for a > 1.
