Asymmetric simple exclusion model with local inhomogeneity
نویسنده
چکیده
We study a totally asymmetric simple exclusion model with open boundary conditions and a local inhomogeneity in the bulk. It consists of a one-dimensional lattice with particles hopping stochastically with equal rates to the right at all lattice sites except one where the jump rate is different. Approximate stationary-state solutions and phase diagrams are obtained and compared with Monte Carlo simulation results.

Local inhomogeneity in asymmetric simple exclusion processes with extended objects
Totally asymmetric simple exclusion processes (TASEP) with particles which occupy more than one lattice site and with a local inhomogeneity far away from the boundaries are investigated. These non-equilibrium processes are relevant for the understanding of many biological and chemical phenomena. The steady-state phase diagrams, currents and bulk densities are calculated using a simple approxima...
متن کاملLast Passage Percolation in Macroscopically Inhomogeneous Media
In this note we investigate the last passage percolation model in the presence of macroscopic inhomogeneity. We analyze how this affects the scaling limit of the passage time, leading to a variational problem that provides an ODE for the deterministic limiting shape of the maximal path. We obtain a sufficient analytical condition for uniqueness of the solution for the variational problem. Conse...
متن کاملLimit Theorems for Additive Functionals of the Simple Exclusion Process
Some invariance principles for additive functionals of simple exclusion with finite-range translation-invariant jump rates p i j = p j − i in dimensions d ≥ 1 are established. A previous investigation concentrated on the case of p symmetric. The principal tools to take care of nonreversibility, when p is asymmetric, are invariance principles for associated random variables and a “local balance”...
متن کاملExact relaxation dynamics in the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process.
The relaxation dynamics of the one-dimensional totally asymmetric simple exclusion process on a ring is considered in the case of step initial condition. Analyzing the time evolution of the local particle densities and currents by the Bethe ansatz method, we examine their full relaxation dynamics. As a result, we observe peculiar behaviors, such as the emergence of a ripple in the density profi...
متن کاملA simple form of MT impedance tensor analysis to simplify its decomposition to remove the effects of near surface small-scale 3-D conductivity structures
Magnetotelluric (MT) is a natural electromagnetic (EM) technique which is used for geothermal, petroleum, geotechnical, groundwater and mineral exploration. MT is also routinely used for mapping of deep subsurface structures. In this method, the measured regional complex impedance tensor (Z) is substantially distorted by any topographical feature or small-scale near-surface, three-dimensional (...
