Thesis
Asymmetric particle systems and last-passage percolation in one and two dimensions
- Abstract:
-
This thesis studies three models: Multi-type TASEP in discrete time, long-range lastpassage percolation on the line and convoy formation in a travelling servers model. All three models are relatively easy to state but they show a very rich and interesting behaviour.
The TASEP is a basic model for a one-dimensional interacting particle system with non-reversible dynamics. We study some aspects of the TASEP in discrete time and compare the results to recently obtained results for the ...
