Abstract

Abstract We present an explicit representation for the matrix product ansatz for some two-species totally asymmetric exclusion process with open boundary conditions. The construction relies on the integrability of the models, a property that constrains the possible rates at the boundaries. The realisation is built on a tensor product of copies of the DEHP algebras. Using this explicit construction, we are able to calculate the partition function of the models. The densities and currents in the stationary state are also computed and led to the phase diagrams of the models. Depending on the values of the boundary rates, we obtain for each species shock waves, maximal current, or low/high densities phases.

Exact Analysis of Two-Species Totally Asymmetric Exclusion Process with Open Boundary Condition

Chikashi Arita

In recent years, one-dimensional driven diffusion models consisting of particles on a lattice have been studied. The most famous topics of these models are solvability and phase transitions. For example, the exact stationary-state solution of the asymmetric exclusion process (ASEP) with an open boundary condition can be obtained as a matrix product form and its physical quantities exhibit boundary-induced phase transitions in the thermodynamic limit. There are three regimes, namely, maximal-current (MC) phase, low-density (LD) phase and high-density (HD) phase in the phase diagram. The two-species models or three-state models are also interesting. The stationary-state solutions of the two-species totally asymmetric exclusion process (TASEP) with a periodic boundary condition and an open boundary condition can be obtained as matrix product forms. The model in ref. 6 exhibits two phases in which symmetry breaks spontaneously. Furthermore, the model in ref. 7 exhibits phase separation. In this note, the two-species TASEP with a new open boundary condition different from the condition in ref. 6 is introduced and we obtain the stationary-state solution exactly as a matrix product form and calculate the physical quantities in the thermodynamic limit. Let us consider a stochastic process on an L-site chain with two-species particles. We note j 1⁄4 0 if site j is empty, j 1⁄4 1 if site j is occupied by the first-class particle and j 1⁄4 2 if site j is occupied by the second-class particle. The exchange rule in the bulk of the chain is expressed as 10 ! 01 with a rate 1; ð1Þ 20 ! 02 with a rate 1; ð2Þ 12 ! 21 with a rate 1: ð3Þ

Open two-species exclusion processes with integrable boundaries

Nicolas Crampé, Kirone Mallick, E. Ragoucy +1 more

We give a complete classification of integrable Markovian boundary conditions for the asymmetric simple exclusion process with two species (or classes) of particles. Some of these boundary conditions lead to non-vanishing particle currents for each species. We explain how the stationary state of all these models can be expressed in a matrix product form, starting from two key components, the Zamolodchikov–Faddeev and Ghoshal–Zamolodchikov relations. This statement is illustrated by studying in detail a specific example, for which the matrix ansatz (involving nine generators) is explicitly constructed and physical observables (such as currents, densities) calculated.

Matrix product solution of a left-permeable two-species asymmetric exclusion process

Arvind Ayyer, Caley Finn, D. Roy

We study a two-species partially asymmetric exclusion process where the left boundary is permeable for the "slower" species but the right boundary is not. We find a matrix product solution for the stationary state and the exact stationary phase diagram for the densities and currents. By calculating the density of each species at the boundaries, we find further structure in the stationary phases. In particular, we find that the slower species can reach and accumulate at the far boundary, even in phases where the bulk density of these particles approaches zero.

Phase transitions in the two-species totally asymmetric exclusion process with open boundaries

Chikashi Arita

The two-species totally asymmetric exclusion process on a chain with the following boundary conditions is studied: the first-class particles are injected at the left boundary and extracted at the right boundary, while the second-class particles are confined to the chain. We construct the stationary-state solution and calculate physical quantities exactly by means of the matrix product ansatz. In the thermodynamic limit, these quantities exhibit boundary-induced phase transitions.

One-dimensional partially asymmetric simple exclusion process with open boundaries: orthogonal polynomials approach

Tomohiro Sasamoto

The stationary state of the partially asymmetric simple exclusion process with open boundaries is reconsidered. The so-called matrix product ansatz is employed. This enables us to construct the stationary state in the form of the product of the matrices D and E . Noticing the fact that the matrix C ( = D + E ) for the model is related to certain q -orthogonal polynomials, the model is analysed for a wide range of parameters. The current and the correlation length are evaluated in the thermodynamic limit. It turns out that the phase diagram for the correlation length is richer than that for the totally asymmetric case.

Recursive structures in the multispecies TASEP

Chikashi Arita, Arvind Ayyer, Kirone Mallick +1 more

We consider a multispecies generalization of the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) with the simple hopping rule: for the α and βth-class particles (α < β), the transition αβ → βα occurs with a rate independent from the values α and β. Ferrari and Martin (2007 Ann. Prob. 35 807) obtained the stationary state of this model thanks to a combinatorial algorithm, which was subsequently interpreted as a matrix product representation by Evans et al (2009 J. Stat. Phys. 135 217). This 'matrix ansatz' shows that the stationary state of the multispecies TASEP with N classes of particles ( N -TASEP) can be constructed algebraically by the action of an operator on the ( N − 1)-TASEP stationary state. Besides, Arita et al ( 2009 J. Phys. A. Math Theor. 45 345002 ) analyzed the spectral structure of the Markov matrix: they showed that the set of eigenvalues of the N -TASEP contains those of the ( N − 1)-TASEP and that the various spectral inclusions can be encoded in a hierarchical set-theoretic structure known as the Hasse diagram. Inspired by these works, we define nontrivial operators that allow us to construct eigenvectors of the N -TASEP by lifting the eigenvectors of the ( N − 1)-TASEP. This goal is achieved by generalizing the matrix product representation and the Ferrari–Martin algorithm. In particular, we show that the matrix ansatz is not only a convenient tool to write the stationary state but in fact intertwines Markov matrices of different values of N .
