Scaling limits of weakly asymmetric interfaces (Q2018293): Difference between revisions

One considers evolving interfaces associated with the weakly asymmetric exclusion process with \(N\) particles on a finite lattice of \(2N\) sites, and one proposes various models. MODEL 1 defines an interface which turns to be the height function associated with a weakly asymmetric simple exclusion process (WASEP). MODEL 1-w is derived from MODEL 1 by specifying that the interface remains non-negative. MODEL 2 is exactly a pair of interfaces, each one being associated to a WASEP, but with the condition that these interfaces cannot cross. It is shown that, for every \(N\) greater than the unity, the continuous-time Markov chain defined by anyone of these three models admits a unique invariant, reversible probability measure the expression of which is fully defined in terms of the exponential function.
