The Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (TASEP) is an important example of a particle system driven by an irreversible Markov chain. In this paper we give a simple yet rigorous derivation of the chain stationary measure in the case…
We introduce the theater model, which is the simplest variant of directed random sequential adsorption in one dimension with point source and steric interactions. Particles enter sequentially an initially empty row of $L$ sites and adsorb…

Current fluctuations for the one-dimensional totally asymmetric exclusion process (TASEP) connected to reservoirs of particles, and their large scale limit to the KPZ fixed point in finite volume, are studied using exact methods. Focusing…
We consider a system with N unit-service-rate queues in tandem, with exogenous arrivals of rate lambda at queue 1, under a back-pressure (MaxWeight) algorithm: service at queue n is blocked unless its queue length is greater than that of…
We study a totally asymmetric simple exclusion process where jumps happen at rate one, except at the origin where the rate is lower. We prove a hydrodynamic scaling limit to a macroscopic profile described by a variational formula. The…
The appearance of traffic jams on chains with a shunted section between two simple chain segments in the maximum current phase is studied in the framework of the Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process. The conditions for the occurrence…
We study the hydrodynamic limit for a periodic $1$-dimensional exclusion process with a dynamical constraint, which prevents a particle at site $x$ from jumping to site $x\pm1$ unless site $x\mp1$ is occupied. This process with degenerate…
We study the behaviour of a symmetric exclusion process in the presence of non-Markovian stochastic resetting, where the configuration of the system is reset to a step-like profile at power-law waiting times with an exponent $\alpha$. We…

We consider the symmetric simple exclusion processes with a slow site in the discrete torus with $n$ sites. In this model, particles perform nearest-neighbor symmetric random walks with jump rates everywhere equal to one, except at one…
We consider the correlations and the hydrodynamic description of random walkers with a general finite memory moving on a $d$ dimensional hypercubic lattice. We derive a drift-diffusion equation and identify a memory-dependent critical…
Consider a system of particles performing nearest neighbor random walks on the lattice $\ZZ$ under hard--core interaction. The rate for a jump over a given bond is direction--independent and the inverse of the jump rates are i.i.d. random…
We consider a class of generalized long-range exclusion processes evolving either on $\mathbb Z$ or on a finite lattice with an open boundary. The jump rates are given in terms of a general kernel depending on both the departure and…
We consider a heterogeneous queueing system consisting of one large pool of $O(r)$ identical servers, where $r\to\infty$ is the scaling parameter. The arriving customers belong to one of several classes which determines the service times in…
We study current fluctuations in lattice gases in the hydrodynamic scaling limit. More precisely, we prove a large deviation principle for the empirical current in the symmetric simple exclusion process with rate functional I. We then…
In four dimensional N=1 supersymmetric field theory it is often the case that the $U(1)_R$ current that becomes part of the superconformal algebra at the infrared fixed point is conserved throughout the renormalization group (RG) flow. We…
In this thesis, we consider one of the most popular models of non-equilibrium statistical physics: the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process, in which particles jump stochastically on a one-dimensional lattice, between two reservoirs at fixed…
