On ASEP with step Bernoulli initial condition (Q846927): Difference between revisions

The paper extends previous work by the authors on asymmetric exclusion processes to the case of the step Bernoulli initial condition. The crucial technical ingredient is a new combinatorial formula, that allows to set a representation of the probability distribution for a fixed particle in terms of a Fredholm determinant. Among the asymptotic results for this probability distribution, the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality is shown to arise in one specific regime.
