We consider an interacting particle system, which generalizes the classical totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP), in that each site can contain up to a fixed finite number of particles, and the particle movement is governed…
The paper is concerned with the equilibrium distributions of continuous-time density dependent Markov processes on the integers. These distributions are known typically to be approximately normal, and the approximation error, as measured in…
We consider all totally asymmetric simple exclusion processes (TASEPs) whose transition probabilities are given in the Sch\"utz-type formulas and which jump with homogeneous rates. We show that the multi-point distribution of particle…
Despite substantial progress in non-equilibrium physics, steady-state (s.s.) probabilities remain intractable to analysis. For a Markov process, s.s. probabilities can be expressed in terms of transition rates using the Matrix-Tree theorem…
For a stochastically monotone Markov chain taking values in a Polish space, we present a number of conditions for existence and for uniqueness of its stationary regime, as well as for closeness of its transient trajectories. In particular,…
For Markov kernels $P$ on a general state space $\mathcal{X}$, we introduce a new class of averaged Markov kernels $P_{da}(G,\nu)$ of $P$ induced by a group $G$ that acts on $\mathcal{X}$ and a probability measure $\nu$ on $G \times G$.…

We study the permutation complexity of finite-state stationary stochastic processes based on a duality between values and orderings between values. First, we establish a duality between the set of all words of a fixed length and the set of…

The charge is an intricate statistic on words, due to Lascoux and Schutzenberger, which gives positive combinatorial formulas for Lusztig's q-analogue of weight multiplicities and the energy function on affine crystals, both of type A. As…
There is an asymptotic relationship between the multiplicative relations among multinomial coefficients and the (additive) recurrence property of Shannon entropy known as the chain rule. We show that both types of identities are…
We initiate the study of the Macdonald intersection polynomials $\operatorname{I}_{\mu^{(1)},\dots,\mu^{(k)}}[X;q,t]$, which are indexed by $k$-tuples of partitions $\mu^{(1)},\dots,\mu^{(k)}$. These polynomials are conjectured to be equal…
The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) is a stochastic model for the unidirectional flow of interacting particles on a 1D-lattice that is much used in systems biology and statistical physics. Its master equation describes…
We prove rapid mixing for certain Markov chains on the set $S_n$ of permutations on $1,2,\dots,n$ in which adjacent transpositions are made with probabilities that depend on the items being transposed. Typically, when in state $\sigma$, a…
The main result of this paper is a new version of Newton-Hensel lifting that relates to interpolation questions. It allows one to lift polynomials in $Z[x]$ from information modulo a prime number $p\ne 2$ to a power $p^k$ for any $k$, and…
The Alexander polynomial (1928) is the first polynomial invariant of links devised to help distinguish links up to isotopy. Fox's conjecture (1962) -- stating that the absolute values of the coefficients of the Alexander polynomial for any…
