Activated Random Walk is a system of interacting particles which presents a phase transition and a conjectured phenomenon of self-organized criticality. In this note, we prove that, in dimension 1, in the supercritical case, when a segment…

Activated Random Walks, on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for any $d\geqslant 1$, is an interacting particle system, where particles can be in either of two states: active or frozen. Each active particle performs a continuous-time simple random walk during…

The Activated Random Walk (ARW) model is a promising candidate for demonstrating self-organized criticality due to its potential for universality. Recent studies have shown that the ARW model exhibits a well-defined critical density in one…

We consider one-dimensional activated random walk (ARW) on $\mathbb{Z}$ started from a `point source' initial condition, with many particles at the origin and no other particles. We prove that, uniformly throughout a macroscopic window…

In this paper we present rigorous results on the critical behavior of the Activated Random Walk model. We conjecture that on a general class of graphs, including $\mathbb{Z}^d$, and under general initial conditions, the system at the…

Activated Random Walk is a particle system displaying Self-Organized Criticality, in that the dynamics spontaneously drive the system to a critical state. How universal is this critical state? We state many interlocking conjectures aimed at…

We consider the Activated Random Walk model on $\mathbb{Z}$. In this model, each particle performs a continuous-time simple symmetric random walk, and falls asleep at rate $\lambda$. A sleeping particle does not move but it is reactivated…

We consider Activated Random Walk (ARW), a particle system with mass conservation, on the cycle $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. One starts with a mass density $\mu>0$ of initially active particles, each of which performs a simple symmetric random…

We consider Activated Random Walks on $\Z$ with totally asymmetric jumps and critical particle density, with different time scales for the progressive release of particles and the dissipation dynamics. We show that the cumulative flow of…

It has been conjectured that the critical density of the Activated Random Walk model is strictly less than one for any value of the sleeping rate. We prove this conjecture on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ when $d \geq 3$ and, more generally, on graphs…

We prove that for the Activated Random Walks model on transitive unimodular graphs, if there is fixation, then every particle eventually fixates, almost surely. We deduce that the critical density is at most 1. Our methods apply for much…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the critical density of the activated random walk model as the sleep rate $\lambda$ tends to $0$ and $\infty$. For large $\lambda$, we prove new lower bounds in dimensions 1 and 2, showing that in one…

We show that the critical density of the Activated Random Walk model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is strictly less than one when the sleep rate $\lambda$ is small enough, and tends to $0$ when $\lambda\to 0$, in any dimension $d\geqslant 1$. As far as…

We study a particle system with hopping (random walk) dynamics on the integer lattice $\mathbb Z^d$. The particles can exist in two states, active or inactive (sleeping); only the former can hop. The dynamics conserves the number of…

We consider the activated random walk (ARW) model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, which undergoes a transition from an absorbing regime to a regime of sustained activity. In any dimension we prove that the system is in the active regime when the…

To explain the ubiquity of power laws and fractals in nature, Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld formulated simple conditions for a system to self-organize into a critical state. Dickman, Mu\~noz, Vespignani, and Zapperi postulated that the…

We show that for small enough sleep rate, the critical density of the symmetric Activated Random Walk model on $\mathbb Z^2$ is strictly less than one.

We consider a branching random walk in a random space-time environment of disasters where each particle is killed when meeting a disaster. This extends the model of the "random walk in a disastrous random environment" introduced by [15]. We…

We study an interacting particle system in which moving particles activate dormant particles linked by the components of critical bond percolation. Addressing a conjecture from Beckman, Dinan, Durrett, Huo, and Junge for a continuous…

We study an interacting random walk system on Z where at time 0 there is an active particle at 0 and one inactive particle on each site $n \ge 1$. Particles become active when hit by another active particle. Once activated, the particle…
