We investigate the dynamics of a one-dimensional asymmetric exclusion process with Langmuir kinetics and a fluctuating wall. At the left boundary, particles are injected onto the lattice; from there, the particles hop to the right. Along the lattice, particles can adsorb or desorb, and the right boundary is defined by a wall particle. The confining wall particle has intrinsic forward and backward hopping, a net leftward drift, and cannot desorb. Performing Monte Carlo simulations and using a moving-frame finite segment approach coupled to mean field theory, we find the parameter regimes in which the wall acquires a steady state position. In other regimes, the wall will either drift to the left and fall off the lattice at the injection site, or drift indefinitely to the right. Our results are discussed in the context of non-equilibrium phases of the system, fluctuating boundary layers, and particle densities in the lab frame versus the frame of the fluctuating wall.

The transfer matrix and matrix multiplication ansatz, when applied to nonequilibrium steady states in asymmetric exclusion processed and traffic models, has given many exact results for phase diagrams, bulk densities and fluxes, as well as density pr ofiles and spatial and temporal correlation functions for models with a dynamics that is updated in (random) sequential and sublattice-parallel order. Here we consider fully parallel or synchronous dynamics, for which only partial results are known, due to the appearance of complicated strong short range correlations, that invalidate simple mean field approximations. This paper is based on two new ingredients: (i) a microscopic characterization of order parameters and local configurations in the relevant phases, based on the microdynamics of the model, and (ii) an improved mean field approximation, which neglects certain four point - and higher order correlation functions. It is conjectured that the density profiles, obtained here, are exact up to terms that are exponentially small in the system size.

Single-file Brownian motion in periodic structures is an important process in nature and technology, which becomes increasingly amenable for experimental investigation under controlled conditions. To explore and understand generic features of this mo tion, the Brownian asymmetric simple exclusion process (BASEP) was recently introduced. The BASEP refers to diffusion models, where hard spheres are driven by a constant drag force through a periodic potential. Here, we derive general properties of the rich collective dynamics in the BASEP. Average currents in the steady state change dramatically with the particle size and density. For an open system coupled to particle reservoirs, extremal current principles predict various nonequilibrium phases, which we verify by Brownian dynamics simulations. For general pair interactions we discuss connections to single-file transport by traveling-wave potentials and prove the impossibility of current reversals in systems driven by a constant drag and by traveling waves.

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 d ensity. 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 show that the known matrix representations of the stationary state algebra of the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (ASEP) can be interpreted combinatorially as various weighted lattice paths. This interpretation enables us to use the constant t erm method (CTM) and bijective combinatorial methods to express many forms of the ASEP normalisation factor in terms of Ballot numbers. One particular lattice path representation shows that the coefficients in the recurrence relation for the ASEP correlation functions are also Ballot numbers. Additionally, the CTM has a strong combinatorial connection which leads to a new ``canonical lattice path representation and to the ``omega-expansion which provides a uniform approach to computing the asymptotic behaviour in the various phases of the ASEP. The path representations enable the ASEP normalisation factor to be seen as the partition function of a more general polymer chain model having a two parameter interaction with a surface.
We consider the dynamics of fluctuations in the quantum asymmetric simple exclusion process (Q-ASEP) with periodic boundary conditions. The Q-ASEP describes a chain of spinless fermions with random hoppings that are induced by a Markovian environment . We show that fluctuations of the fermionic degrees of freedom obey evolution equations of Lindblad type, and derive the corresponding Lindbladians. We identify the underlying algebraic structure by mapping them to non-Hermitian spin chains and demonstrate that the operator space fragments into exponentially many (in system size) sectors that are invariant under time evolution. At the level of quadratic fluctuations we consider the Lindbladian on the sectors that determine the late time dynamics for the particular case of the quantum symmetric simple exclusion process (Q-SSEP). We show that the corresponding blocks in some cases correspond to known Yang-Baxter integrable models and investigate the level-spacing statistics in others. We carry out a detailed analysis of the steady states and slow modes that govern the late time behaviour and show that the dynamics of fluctuations of observables is described in terms of closed sets of coupled linear differential-difference equations. The behaviour of the solutions to these equations is essentially diffusive but with relevant deviations, that at sufficiently late times and large distances can be described in terms of a continuum scaling limit which we construct. We numerically check the validity of this scaling limit over a significant range of time and space scales. These results are then applied to the study of operator spreading at large scales, focusing on out-of-time ordered correlators and operator entanglement.
