Abstract
We consider diffusion-limited annihilating systems with mobile -particles and stationary -particles placed throughout a graph. Mutual annihilation occurs whenever an -particle meets a -particle. Such systems, when ran in discrete time, are also referred to as parking processes. We show for a broad family of graphs and random walk kernels that augmenting either the size or variability of the initial placements of particles increases the total occupation time by -particles of a given subset of the graph. A corollary is that the same phenomenon occurs with the total lifespan of all particles in internal diffusion-limited aggregation.
