Title: Markov duality for interacting particle systems

Abstract: In this talk I will overview the concept of duality for Markov processes and, in particular, some special classes of interacting particle systems. I will explain how such relations arise naturally from an algebraic description of the models and I will give some ideas on how to characterize the stationary measure using the dual, simpler, model. This is done in a context where the initial models are connected with boundary reservoirs, creating a non-equilibrium setting.
