چکیده
We consider the one dimensional totally asymmetric nearest neighbors simple exclusion process with drift to the right starting with the connguration \all one" to the left and \all zero" to the right of the origin. We prove that a second class particle initially added at the origin chooses randomly one of the characteristics with the uniform law on the directions and then moves at constant speed along the chosen one. The result extends to the case of a product initial distribution with densities > to the left and right of the origin respectively. Furthermore we show that, with a positive probability, two second class particles in the rarefaction fan never meet. R esum e. On consid ere le processus d'exclusion simple totalement asym etrique unidimensionel avec d erive a droite. Le processus commence avec la connguration \tout un" a gauche de l'origine et \tout z ero" a droite. On prouve qu'une particule de deuxi eme classe plac ee a l'origine a l'instant z ero choisit une des charact eristiques avec une loi uniforme et ensuite suit cette charact eristique a vitesse constante. Le r esultat s'etend au cas d'une mesure initiale produit avec densit es a gauche et a droite de l'origine, satisfaisant >. Finalement, on prouve que deux particules de deuxi eme classe dans le front de rar efaction ont une probabilit e positive de ne pas se rencontrer.

Behavior of a second class particle in Hammersley’s process
In the case of a rarefaction fan in a non-stationary Hammersley process, we explicitly calculate the asymptotic behavior of the process as we move out along a ray, and the asymptotic distribution of the angle within the rarefaction fan of a second class particle and a dual second class particle. Furthermore, we consider a stationary Hammersley process and use the previous results to show that t...
متن کاملCollision Probabilities in the Rarefaction Fan of Asymmetric Exclusion Processes
We consider the one-dimensional asymmetric simple exclusion process (asep) in which particles jump to the right at rate p ∈ (1/2, 1] and to the left at rate 1 − p, interacting by exclusion. In the initial state there is a finite region such that to the left of this region all sites are occuppied and to the right of it all sites are empty. Under this initial state, the hydrodynamical limit of th...

متن کاملExclusion and zero-range in the rarefaction fan
In these notes we briefly review asymptotic results for the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process and the totally asymmetric constant-rate zero-range process, in the presence of particles with different priorities. We review the Law of Large Numbers for a second class particle added to those systems and we present the proof of crossing probabilities for a second and a third class particle...
متن کاملCompetition Interfaces and Second Class Particles
The one-dimensional nearest neighbor totally asymmetric simple exclusion process can be constructed in the same space as a last-passage percolation model in Z. We show that the trajectory of a second class particle in the exclusion process can be linearly mapped into the competition interface between two growing clusters in the last-passage percolation model. Using technology built up for geode...
