Asymmetric stochastic transport models with \(\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{su}(1,1))\) symmetry (Q300700)

The paper should be read in conjunction with the authors' paper [Probab. Theory Relat. Fields 166, No. 3--4, 887--933 (2016; Zbl 1354.60115)] where an algebraic construction has been introduced that allows to consider Markov processes related to the \({\mathcal{U}}_q(\mathfrak{su}(1,1))\) quantum Lie algebra with the deformation parameter \(q\in (0,1)\). Both motivations and a detailed description of various extensions of the asymmetric exclusion process are given there. Specifically links of quantum Lie algebras to self-dual Markov processes, the notion of quantum Hamiltonians, their symmetries and the so-called ground state transformation (Doob's multiplicative one) relating the semigroup dynamics with that of associated Markovian stochastic processes (ground state processes). In the present paper, several Markov processes related to the algebra \({\mathcal{U}}_q(\mathfrak{su}(1,1))\) are introduced. Most of them come as generalizations of the Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti (KMP) model [\textit{C. Giardinà} et al., J. Stat. Phys. 135, No. 1, 25--55 (2009; Zbl 1173.82020)]. Their self-duality and dualities between some of those processes are established. This includes an asymmetric version of the inclusion process, which is self-dual as well as the asymmetric version of the KMP process, which turns out to have a symmetric inclusion process as a dual one. Applications of various duality relations are suggested by computing exponential moments of suitably defined probabilistic currents.
