Abstract
We study driven-dissipative activated random walk with sleep probability on an -vertex complete graph with a sink that traps jumping particles with probability . We show that the number of sleeping particles left by the stationary distribution has a Gumbel scaling limit for . The particular scaling implies that is hyperuniform and thus the stationary configuration law has negative correlations and is not a product measure. We also prove that converges to if and only if , and that, when , the number of jumps to stabilization undergoes a phase transition at density .
