Relaxation time in a non-conserving driven-diffusive system with parallel dynamics

Statistical Mechanics 2014-03-07 v1

Abstract

We introduce a two-state non-conserving driven-diffusive system in one-dimension under a discrete-time updating scheme. We show that the steady-state of the system can be obtained using a matrix product approach. On the other hand, the steady-state of the system can be expressed in terms of a linear superposition Bernoulli shock measures with random walk dynamics. The dynamics of a shock position is studied in detail. The spectrum of the transfer matrix and the relaxation times to the steady-state have also been studied in the large-system-size limit.
