Spurious phase in a model for traffic on a bridge
David W. Erickson, Gunnar Pruessner, B. Schmittmann +1
We present high-precision Monte Carlo data for the phase diagram of a two-species driven diffusive system, reminiscent of traffic across a narrow bridge. Earlier studies reported t…
Will jams get worse when slow cars move over?
B. Schmittmann, J. Krometis, R. K. P. Zia
Motivated by an analogy with traffic, we simulate two species of particles (`vehicles'), moving stochastically in opposite directions on a two-lane ring road. Each species prefers…
Anomalous nucleation far from equilibrium
Ivan T. Georgiev, Beate Schmittmann, Royce K. P. Zia
We present precision Monte Carlo data and analytic arguments for an asymmetric exclusion process, involving two species of particles driven in opposite directions on a …
Applications of Field-Theoretic Renormalization Group Methods to Reaction-Diffusion Problems
Uwe C. Tauber, Martin Howard, Benjamin P. Vollmayr-Lee
We review the application of field-theoretic renormalization group (RG) methods to the study of fluctuations in reaction-diffusion problems. We first investigate the physical origi…
Exact dynamics of a reaction-diffusion model with spatially alternating rates
M. Mobilia, B. Schmittmann, R. K. P. Zia
We present the exact solution for the full dynamics of a nonequilibrium spin chain and its dual reaction-diffusion model, for arbitrary initial conditions. The spin chain is driven…
Voting and Catalytic Processes with Inhomogeneities
Mauro Mobilia, Ivan T. Georgiev
We consider the dynamics of the voter model and of the monomer-monomer catalytic process in the presence of many ``competing'' inhomogeneities and show, through exact calculations…
