We apply the methodology of random evolutions to ¯nd the partial di®erential equations governing the particle motion and we obtain a factorization of these equations. As a particular case we ¯nd the linear biwave equation for the symmetric motion case and 2-Erlang distributions for the sojourn times of a semi-Markov evolution. creators_name: Pogoruі, А.
