In this paper we consider three classes of interacting particle systems on $\mathbb Z$: independent random walks, the exclusion process, and the inclusion process. We allow particles to switch their jump rate (the rate identifies the type…

We study a driven many particle system comprising of two identical lanes of finite lengths. On one lane, particles hop diffusively with a bias in a specific direction. On the other lane, particles hop in a specific direction obeying mutual…

A family of diffusion-annihilation processes is introduced, which is exactly solvable. This family contains parameters that control the diffusion- and annihilation- rates. The solution is based on the Bethe ansatz and using special boundary…

Infinitely many particles of two types ("plus" and "minus") jump randomly along the one-dimensional lattice $\mathbf{Z}_{\varepsilon}=\varepsilon\mathbf{Z}$. Annihillations occur when two particles of different time occupy the same site.…
