Commutative monoid duality

Probability 2022-07-25 v3

Abstract

We introduce two partially overlapping classes of pathwise dualities between interacting particle systems that are based on commutative monoids (semigroups with a neutral element) and semirings, respectively. For interacting particle systems whose local state space has two elements, this approach yields a unified treatment of the well-known additive and cancellative dualities. For local state spaces with three or more elements, we discover several new dualities.
