Abstract

For the two-sided Bernoulli initial condition with density ρ\rho_- (resp. ρ+\rho_+) to the left (resp. to the right), we study the distribution of a tagged particle in the one dimensional symmetric simple exclusion process. We obtain a formula for the moment generating function of the associated current in terms of a Fredholm determinant. Our arguments are based on a combination of techniques from integrable probability which have been developed recently for studying the asymmetric exclusion process and a subsequent intricate symmetric limit. An expression for the large deviation function of the tagged particle position is obtained, including the case of the stationary measure with uniform density ρ\rho.
