Abstract

We construct a class of assisted hopping models in one dimension in which a particle can move only if it does not lie in an otherwise empty interval of length greater than . We determine the exact steady state by a mapping to a gas of defects with only on-site interaction. We show that this system undergoes a phase transition as a function of the density of particles, from a low-density phase with all particles immobile for , to an active state for . The mean fraction of movable particles in the active steady state varies as , for near . We show that for the model with range , the exponent , and thus can be made arbitrarily large.
