The misanthrope process is a class of stochastic interacting particle systems, generalizing the simple exclusion process. It allows each site of the lattice to accommodate more than one particle. We consider a special case of the one…
We revisit the one-dimensional model of the symmetric simple exclusion process slowly coupled with two unequal reservoirs at the boundaries. In its non-equilibrium stationary state, the large deviations functions of density and current have…
We calculate the exact stationary distribution of the one-dimensional zero-range process with open boundaries for arbitrary bulk and boundary hopping rates. When such a distribution exists, the steady state has no correlations between sites…
Stochastic models of diffusion with excluded-volume effects are used to model many biological and physical systems at a discrete level. The average properties of the population may be described by a continuum model based on partial…
We study the influence of the boundary conditions at the solid liquid interface on diffusion in a confined fluid. Using an hydrodynamic approach, we compute numerical estimates for the diffusion of a particle confined between two planes.…
The transition from a microscopic model for the movement of many particles to a macroscopic continuum model for a density flow is studied. The microscopic model for the free flow is completely deterministic, described by an interaction…

Many biological processes are supported by special molecules, called motor proteins or molecular motors, that transport cellular cargoes along linear protein filaments and can reversibly associate to their tracks. Stimulated by these…
The thermodynamics of phase transitions between phases that are size-mismatched but coherent differs from conventional stress-free thermodynamics. Most notably, in open systems such phase transitions are always associated with hysteresis.…
We consider the asymmetric exclusion process. We start from a profile which is constant along the drift direction and prove that the density profile, under a diffusive rescaling of time, converges to the solution of a parabolic equation.
We derive a formula for the quasi-potential of one-dimensional symmetric exclusion process in weak contact with reservoirs. The interaction with the boundary is so weak that, in the diffusive scale, the density profile evolves as the one of…
We consider an exclusion process with finite-range interactions in the microscopic interval $[0,N]$. The process is coupled with the simple symmetric exclusion processes in the intervals $[-N,-1]$ and $[N+1,2N]$, which simulate reservoirs.…
A new diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two incompressible fluids with different densities is introduced using methods from rational continuum mechanics. The model fulfills local and global dissipation inequalities and is…
We revisit the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with open boundaries (TASEP), focussing on the recent discovery by de Gier and Essler that the model has a dynamical transition along a nontrivial line in the phase diagram. This…
Biological cells can release compounds into their direct environment, generally inhomogeneously over their cell membrane, after which the compounds spread by diffusion. In mathematical modelling and simulation of a collective of such cells,…
The exclusion process in which particles may jump any distance l>=1 with the probability that decays as l^-(1+sigma) is studied from coarse-grained equation for density profile in the limit when the lattice spacing goes to zero. For…
We study an interacting box-particle system on a one-dimensional periodic ring involving two species of particles $A$ and $B$. In this model, from a randomly chosen site, a particle of species $A$ can hop to its right neighbor with a rate…
Diffusive properties of a monodisperse system of interacting particles confined to a \textit{quasi}-one-dimensional (Q1D) channel are studied using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We calculate numerically the mean-squared displacement…
We consider a lattice model of active matter with exclusion and derive its hydrodynamic description exactly. The hydrodynamic limit leads to an integro-differential equation for the density of particles with a given orientation. Volume…
The large deviation properties of equilibrium (reversible) lattice gases are mathematically reasonably well understood. Much less is known in non--equilibrium, namely for non reversible systems. In this paper we consider a simple example of…
