Condensation is the phenomenon whereby one of a sum of random variables contributes a finite fraction to the sum. It is manifested as an aggregation phenomenon in diverse physical systems such as coalescence in granular media, jamming in…
We revisit the problem of condensation for independent, identically distributed random variables with a power-law tail, conditioned by the value of their sum. For large values of the sum, and for a large number of summands, a condensation…
We study the factorised steady state of a general class of mass transport models in which mass, a conserved quantity, is transferred stochastically between sites. Condensation in such models is exhibited when above a critical mass density…
Condensation phenomena are ubiquitous in nature and are found in condensed matter, disordered systems, networks, finance, etc. In the present work we investigate one of the best frameworks in which condensation phenomena take place, namely,…
The phenomenon of real-space condensation is encountered in a variety of situations such as aggregation and fragmentation processes, granular clustering, phase separation, traffic and networks. Unlike traditional Bose-Einstein condensation…

Systems driven out of equilibrium can often exhibit behaviour not seen in systems in thermal equilibrium- for example phase transitions in one-dimensional systems. In this talk I will review several `condensation' transitions that occur…
We study real space condensation in aggregation-fragmentation models where the total mass is not conserved, as in phenomena like cloud formation and intracellular trafficking. We study the scaling properties of the system with influx and…
We study the probability distribution $P$ of the sum of a large number of non-identically distributed random variables $n_m$. Condensation of fluctuations, the phenomenon whereby one of such variables provides a macroscopic contribution to…
We consider stochastic lattice gases with stationary product weights and a polynomial perturbation vanishing with the system size that leads to condensation. If the density of particles exceeds a critical value the system phase separates…
We study the phenomenon of real space condensation in the steady state of a class of mass transport models where the steady state factorises. The grand canonical ensemble may be used to derive the criterion for the occurrence of a…
Non-equilibrium real-space condensation is a phenomenon in which a finite fraction of some conserved quantity (mass, particles, etc.) becomes spatially localised. We review two popular stochastic models of hopping particles that lead to…
We study the dynamics of condensation for a stochastic continuous mass transport process defined on a one-dimensional lattice. Specifically we introduce three different variations of the truncated random average process. We generalize…
Condensation of fluctuations is an interesting phenomenon conceptually distinct from condensation on average. One stricking feature is that, contrary to what happens on average, condensation of fluctuations may occurr even in the absence of…
We study the condensation phenomenon for the invariant measures of the mean-field model of reversible coagulation-fragmentation processes conditioned to a supercritical density of particles. It is shown that when the parameters of the…
We consider stochastic rules of mass transport which lead to steady states that factorize over the links of a one-dimensional ring. Based on the knowledge of the steady states, we derive the onset of a phase transition from a liquid to a…
It is known that large deviations of sums of subexponential random variables are most likely realised by deviations of a single random variable. In this article we give a detailed picture of how subexponential random variables are…
We consider an extension of the zero-range process to the case where the hop rate depends on the state of both departure and arrival sites. We recover the misanthrope and the target process as special cases for which the probability of the…
Several lattice models display a condensation transition in real space when the density of a suitable order parameter exceeds a critical value. We consider one of such models with two conservation laws, in a one-dimensional open setup where…
