As a solvable and broadly applicable model system, the totally asymmetric exclusion process enjoys iconic status in the theory of non-equilibrium phase transitions. Here, we focus on the time dependence of the total number of particles on a 1-dimensional open lattice, and its power spectrum. Using both Monte Carlo simulations and analytic methods, we explore its behavior in different characteristic regimes. In the maximal current phase and on the coexistence line (between high/low density phases), the power spectrum displays algebraic decay, with exponents -1.62 and -2.00, respectively. Deep within the high/low density phases, we find pronounced emph{oscillations}, which damp into power laws. This behavior can be understood in terms of driven biased diffusion with conserved noise in the bulk.

We revisit the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with open boundaries (TASEP), focussing on the recent discovery by de Gier and Essler that the model has a dynamical transition along a nontrivial line in the phase diagram. This line coincides neither with any change in the steady-state properties of the TASEP, nor the corresponding line predicted by domain wall theory. We provide numerical evidence that the TASEP indeed has a dynamical transition along the de Gier-Essler line, finding that the most convincing evidence was obtained from Density Matrix Renormalisation Group (DMRG) calculations. By contrast, we find that the dynamical transition is rather hard to see in direct Monte Carlo simulations of the TASEP. We furthermore discuss in general terms scenarios that admit a distinction between static and dynamic phase behaviour.
We study the driven Brownian motion of hard rods in a one-dimensional cosine potential with an amplitude large compared to the thermal energy. In a closed system, we find surprising features of the steady-state current in dependence of the particle density. The form of the current-density relation changes greatly with the particle size and can exhibit both a local maximum and minimum. The changes are caused by an interplay of a barrier reduction, blocking and exchange symmetry effect. The latter leads to a current equal to that of non-interacting particles for a particle size commensurate with the period length of the cosine potential. For an open system coupled to particle reservoirs, we predict five different phases of non-equilibrium steady states to occur. Our results show that the particle size can be of crucial importance for non-equilibrium phase transitions in driven systems. Possible experiments for demonstrating our findings are pointed out.
We study the dynamics of condensation of the inclusion process on a one-dimensional periodic lattice in the thermodynamic limit, generalising recent results on finite lattices for symmetric dynamics. Our main focus is on totally asymmetric dynamics which have not been studied before, and which we also compare to exact solutions for symmetric systems. We identify all relevant dynamical regimes and corresponding time scales as a function of the system size, including a coarsening regime where clusters move on the lattice and exchange particles, leading to a growing average cluster size. Suitable observables exhibit a power law scaling in this regime before they saturate to stationarity following an exponential decay depending on the system size. Our results are based on heuristic derivations and exact computations for symmetric systems, and are supported by detailed simulation data.
We study the probability distribution of entanglement in the Quantum Symmetric Simple Exclusion Process, a model of fermions hopping with random Brownian amplitudes between neighboring sites. We consider a protocol where the system is initialized in a pure product state of $M$ particles, and focus on the late-time distribution of Renyi-$q$ entropies for a subsystem of size $ell$. By means of a Coulomb gas approach from Random Matrix Theory, we compute analytically the large-deviation function of the entropy in the thermodynamic limit. For $q>1$, we show that, depending on the value of the ratio $ell/M$, the entropy distribution displays either two or three distinct regimes, ranging from low- to high-entanglement. These are connected by points where the probability density features singularities in its third derivative, which can be understood in terms of a transition in the corresponding charge density of the Coulomb gas. Our analytic results are supported by numerical Monte Carlo simulations.
We numerically study the large deviation function of the total current, which is the sum of local currents over all bonds, for the symmetric and asymmetric simple exclusion processes with open boundary conditions. We estimate the generating function by calculating the largest eigenvalue of the modified transition matrix and by population Monte Carlo simulation. As a result, we find a number of interesting behaviors not observed in the exactly solvable cases studied previously as follows. The even and odd parts of the generating function show different system-size dependences. Different definitions of the current lead to the same generating function in small systems. The use of the total current is important in the Monte Carlo estimation. Moreover, a cusp appears in the large deviation function for the asymmetric simple exclusion process. We also discuss the convergence property of the population Monte Carlo simulation and find that in a certain parameter region, the convergence is very slow and the gap between the largest and second largest eigenvalues of the modified transition matrix rapidly tends to vanish with the system size.
