We investigate a novel variant of the exclusion process in which particles perform asymmetric nearest-neighbor jumps across a bond \((k, k+1)\) only if the preceding site \((k-1)\) is unoccupied. This next-nearest-neighbor constraint…

We describe the translation invariant stationary states (TIS) of the one-dimensional facilitated asymmetric exclusion process in continuous time, in which a particle at site $i\in\mathbb{Z}$ jumps to site $i+1$ (respectively $i-1$) with…

We consider a discrete time random walk in a space-time i.i.d. random environment. We use a martingale approach to show that the walk is diffusive in almost every fixed environment. We improve on existing results by proving an invariance…
