Abstract: The fractional Fokker–Planck equation, were used to describe the anomalous diffusion in external fields, is derived using a comb-like structure as a background model. For the force-free case, the distribution function associated with space dependence diffusion coefficient along the backbone of the structure are obtained in a closed form of H-function. The operator method has been used to solve the fractional Fokker–Planck equation taking the external field into account.
