Abstract

We study the long time asymptotics of the relaxation dynamics of the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process on a ring.Evaluating the asymptotic amplitudes of the local currents by the algebraic Bethe ansatz method, we find that the relaxation times starting from the step and alternating initial conditions are governed by different eigenvalues of the Markov matrix.In both cases, the scaling exponents of the leading asymptotic amplitudes with respect to the total number of sites are found to be -1.We also study the asymptotics of correlation functions such as the emptiness formation probability.

Exact relaxation dynamics in the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process

Kohei Motegi, Kazumitsu Sakai, Jun Sato

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 profile and the existence of the excessive particle currents. Moreover, by making a finite-size scaling analysis of the asymptotic amplitudes of the local densities and currents, we find the scaling exponents with respect to the total number of sites to be -3/2 and -1, respectively.

Finite-Time Fluctuations for the Totally Asymmetric Exclusion Process

Sylvain Prolhac

The one-dimensional totally asymmetric simple exclusion process, a Markov process describing classical hard-core particles hopping in the same direction, is considered on a periodic lattice of L sites. The relaxation to the nonequilibrium steady state, which occurs on the time scale t∼L^{3/2} for large L, is studied for the half-filled system with N=L/2 particles. Using large L asymptotics of Bethe ansatz formulas for the eigenstates, exact expressions depending explicitly on the rescaled time t/L^{3/2} are obtained for the average and two-point function of the local density, and for the current fluctuations for simple (stationary, flat and step) initial conditions, relating previous results for the infinite system to stationary large deviations. The final formulas have a nice interpretation in terms of a functional integral with the action of a scalar field in a linear potential.

Spectrum in multi-species asymmetric simple exclusion process on a ring

Chikashi Arita, Atsuo Kuniba, Kazumitsu Sakai +1 more

The spectrum of Hamiltonian (Markov matrix) of a multi-species asymmetric simple exclusion process on a ring is studied. The dynamical exponent concerning the relaxation time is found to coincide with the one-species case. It implies that the system belongs to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang or Edwards-Wilkinson universality classes depending on whether the hopping rate is asymmetric or symmetric, respectively. Our derivation exploits a poset structure of the particle sectors, leading to a new spectral duality and inclusion relations. The Bethe ansatz integrability is also demonstrated.

Relaxation dynamics of the asymmetric simple exclusion process with Langmuir kinetics on a ring

Jun Sato, Katsuhiro Nishinari

We consider the asymmetric simple exclusion process with Langmuir kinetics on a periodic lattice. We analytically obtain the exact time evolution of correlation functions with arbitrary length starting from the initial state with no particle in the system. The exact stationary state of this model has been known for the totally asymmetric case. We propose a basis transformation which simplifies the proof of the stationarity of this state and enables the generalization to the partially asymmetric case. Moreover, we construct low-energy excitations and obtain the exact relaxation time.

Algebraic Bethe ansatz for the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with boundaries

Nicolas Crampé

We study the one-dimensional totally asymmetric simple exclusion process in contact with two reservoirs including also a fugacity at one boundary. The eigenvectors and the eigenvalues of the corresponding Markov matrix are computed using the modified algebraic Bethe ansatz, a method introduced recently to study the spin chain with non-diagonal boundaries. We provide in this case a proof of this method.
