Separation versus diffusion in a two species system

Probability 2014-12-16 v1

Abstract

We consider a finite number of particles that move in Z\mathbb Z as independent random walks. The particles are of two species that we call aa and bb. The rightmost aa particle becomes a bb particle at constant rate, while the leftmost bb particle becomes aa particle at the same rate, independently. We prove that in the hydrodynamic limit the evolution is described by a non linear system of two PDE's with free boundaries.
