Quantitative ergodicity for the symmetric exclusion process with stationary initial data


Abstract in English

We consider the symmetric exclusion process on the $d$-dimensional lattice with translational invariant and ergodic initial data. It is then known that as $t$ diverges the distribution of the process at time $t$ converges to a Bernoulli product measure. Assuming a summable decay of correlations of the initial data, we prove a quantitative version of this convergence by obtaining an explicit bound on the Ornstein $bar d$-distance. The proof is based on the analysis of a two species exclusion process with annihilation.
