Hydrodynamic behavior of one dimensional subdiffusive exclusion processes with random conductances
Abstract
Consider a system of particles performing nearest neighbor random walks on the lattice under hard--core interaction. The rate for a jump over a given bond is direction--independent and the inverse of the jump rates are i.i.d. random variables belonging to the domain of attraction of an --stable law, . This exclusion process models conduction in strongly disordered one-dimensional media. We prove that, when varying over the disorder and for a suitable slowly varying function , under the super-diffusive time scaling , the density profile evolves as the solution of the random equation , where is the generalized second-order differential operator in which is a double sided --stable subordinator. This result follows from a quenched hydrodynamic limit in the case that the i.i.d. jump rates are replaced by a suitable array having same distribution and fulfilling an a.s. invariance principle. We also prove a law of large numbers for a tagged particle.
