Blockage induced condensation controlled by a local reaction

Statistical Mechanics 2016-10-19 v1

Abstract

We consider the set-up of stationary Zero Range models and discuss the onset of condensation induced by a local blockage on the lattice. We show that the introduction of a local feedback on the hopping rates allows to control the particle fraction in the condensed phase. This phenomenon results in a current vs. blockage parameter curve characterized by two non--analyticity points.
