A steady self-diffusion process in a gas of hard spheres at equilibrium is analyzed. The system exhibits a constant gradient of labeled particles. Neither the concentration of these particles nor its gradient are assumed to be small. It is…
The standard setup for single-file diffusion is diffusing particles in one dimension which cannot overtake each other, where the dynamics of a tracer (tagged) particle is of main interest. In this article we generalise this system and…

We study a system of particles which jump on the sites of the interval $[1,L]$ of $\mathbb Z$. The density at the boundaries is kept fixed to simulate the action of mass reservoirs. The evolution depends on two parameters $\lambda'\ge 0$…
