Switching diffusion process on a ring $x\in [0,L]$ in continuous time. A switching diffusion process involves a stochastic switching between M modes characterised by an identical diffusion constant D but distinct drifts $v_i$ ($i=1,2,\cdots ,M$). The marginal switching dynamics are characterised as an M-state Markov process with transition rates ${\alpha }_{ij}$ from mode i to mode j.
