Active Phase for Activated Random Walk on Z

Probability 2025-11-04 v1 Mathematical Physics math.MP

Abstract

We consider the Activated Random Walk model on Z\mathbb{Z}. In this model, each particle performs a continuous-time simple symmetric random walk, and falls asleep at rate λ\lambda. A sleeping particle does not move but it is reactivated in the presence of another particle. We show that for any sleep rate λ<\lambda < \infty if the density ζ \zeta is close enough to 11 then the system stays active.
