Place an $A$-particle at each site of a graph independently with probability $p$ and otherwise place a $B$-particle. $A$- and $B$-particles perform independent continuous time random walks at rates $lambda_A$ and $lambda_B$, respectively, and annihilate upon colliding with a particle of opposite type. Bramson and Lebowitz studied the setting $lambda_A = lambda_B$ in the early 1990s. Despite recent progress, many basic questions remain unanswered for when $lambda_A eq lambda_B$. For the critical case $p=1/2$ on low-dimensional integer lattices, we give a lower bound on the expected number of particles at the origin that matches physicists predictions. For the process with $lambda_B=0$ on the integers and the bidirected regular tree, we give sharp upper and lower bounds for the expected total occupation time of the root at and approaching criticality.

We study an infinite system of moving particles, where each particle is of type A or B. Particles perform independent random walks at rates D_A>0 and D_B>0, and the interaction is given by mutual annihilation A+B->0. The initial condition is i.i.d. with finite first moment. We show that this system is site-recurrent, that is, each site is visited infinitely many times. We also generalize a lower bound on the density decay of Bramson and Lebowitz by considering a construction that handles different jump rates.
We consider diffusion-limited annihilating systems with mobile $A$-particles and stationary $B$-particles placed throughout a graph. Mutual annihilation occurs whenever an $A$-particle meets a $B$-particle. Such systems, when ran in discrete time, are also referred to as parking processes. We show for a broad family of graphs and random walk kernels that augmenting either the size or variability of the initial placements of particles increases the total occupation time by $A$-particles of a given subset of the graph. A corollary is that the same phenomenon occurs with the total lifespan of all particles in internal diffusion-limited aggregation.
A class of interacting particle systems on $mathbb{Z}$, involving instantaneously annihilating or coalescing nearest neighbour random walks, are shown to be Pfaffan point processes for all deterministic initial conditions. As diffusion limits, explicit Pfaffan kernels are derived for a variety of coalescing and annihilating Brownian systems. For Brownian motions on $mathbb{R}$, depending on the initial conditions, the corresponding kernels are closely related to the bulk and edge scaling limits of the Pfaffan point process for real eigenvalues for the real Ginibre ensemble of random matrices. For Brownian motions on $mathbb{R}_{+}$ with absorbing or reflected boundary conditions at zero new interesting Pfaffan kernels appear. We illustrate the utility of the Pfaffan structure by determining the extreme statistics of the rightmost particle for the purely annihilating Brownian motions, and also computing the probability of overcrowded regions for all models.
In this paper we consider three classes of interacting particle systems on $mathbb Z$: independent random walks, the exclusion process, and the inclusion process. We allow particles to switch their jump rate (the rate identifies the type of particle) between $1$ (fast particles) and $epsilonin[0,1]$ (slow particles). The switch between the two jump rates happens at rate $gammain(0,infty)$. In the exclusion process, the interaction is such that each site can be occupied by at most one particle of each type. In the inclusion process, the interaction takes places between particles of the same type at different sites and between particles of different type at the same site. We derive the macroscopic limit equations for the three systems, obtained after scaling space by $N^{-1}$, time by $N^2$, the switching rate by $N^{-2}$, and letting $Ntoinfty$. The limit equations for the macroscopic densities associated to the fast and slow particles is the well-studied double diffusivity model. This system of reaction-diffusion equations was introduced to model polycrystal diffusion and dislocation pipe diffusion, with the goal to overcome the limitations imposed by Ficks law. In order to investigate the microscopic out-of-equilibrium properties, we analyse the system on $[N]={1,ldots,N}$, adding boundary reservoirs at sites $1$ and $N$ of fast and slow particles, respectively. Inside $[N]$ particles move as before, but now particles are injected and absorbed at sites $1$ and $N$ with prescribed rates that depend on the particle type. We compute the steady-state density profile and the steady-state current. It turns out that uphill diffusion is possible, i.e., the total flow can be in the direction of increasing total density. This phenomenon, which cannot occur in a single-type particle system, is a violation of Ficks law made possible by the switching between types.
We consider a processor sharing queue where the number of jobs served at any time is limited to $K$, with the excess jobs waiting in a buffer. We use random counting measures on the positive axis to model this system. The limit of this measure-valued process is obtained under diffusion scaling and heavy traffic conditions. As a consequence, the limit of the system size process is proved to be a piece-wise reflected Brownian motion.
