Exact solution of a boundary-driven integrable particle system. I present the results of a joint (ongoing) work with Rouven Frassek. We consider the boundary-driven interacting particle systems introduced in [1], related to the open non-compact Heisenberg model in one dimension. We show that a finite chain of N sites connected at its ends to two reservoirs can be solved exactly, i.e. the non-equilibrium steady-state has a closed-form expression for each N. The solution relies on probabilistic arguments and techniques inspired by integrable systems. It is obtained in two steps: i) the introduction of a dual absorbing process reducing the problem to a finite number of particles; ii) the solution of the dual dynamics exploiting a non-local symmetry obtained from the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. The exact solution allows to prove by direct computation that, in the thermodynamic limit, the system approaches local equilibrium, whereas microscopically there are long-ranged correlations. A by-product of the solution is the algebraic construction of a direct mapping (a conjugation) between the generator of the non-equilibrium process and the generator of the associated reversible equilibrium process. Macroscopically, this mapping was previously observed by Tailleur, Kurchan and Lecomte in the context of Macroscopic Fluctuation Theory. [1] R. Frassek, C. Giardinà, J.

Orthogonal duality functions from Lie algebra representations In this talk I explain how, for certain symmetric interacting particle processes associated to Lie algebras, orthogonal duality functions can be obtained from unitary intertwining operators for certain Lie algebra representations. This gives, for example, an algebraic explanation for the occurrence of Krawtchouk polynomials as self-duality functions for the symmetric exclusion process.

q-deformed Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov equations, vertex models and duality I will discuss certain solutions of the q-deformed Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov (qKZ) equations, which may be expressed via partition functions in stochastic vertex models. After recasting the qKZ equations in terms of generators of the Hecke algebra, one may interpret the resulting relations as a duality between two multi-species ASEPs. This leads to a kind of factory for producing duality observables, as partition functions within the vertex model in question. Several examples will be discussed.

Color-position symmetry in interacting particle systems Multi-species versions of several interacting particle systems, including ASEP, q-TAZRP, and k-exclusion processes, can be interpreted as random walks on Hecke algebras. An involution in Hecke algebra leads to an interesting symmetry of these processes which we refer to as the color-position symmetry. In the talk I will describe this symmetry and several applications to asymptotic questions. Based on joint works with A. Borodin and with P. Nejjar.

Markov duality for stochastic six vertex model We prove that Schütz’s ASEP Markov duality functional is also a Markov duality functional for the stochastic six vertex model. We introduce a new method that uses induction on the number of particles to prove the Markov duality. If time permits, I will also talk about some application of this duality.

Markov process representation of semigroups whose generators include negative rates Generators of Markov processes on a countable state space can be represented as finite or infinite matrices. One key property is that the off-diagonal entries corresponding to jump rates of the Markov process are non-negative. I will present stochastic characterizations of the semigroup generated by a generator with possibly negative rates. This is done by considering a larger state space with one or more particles and antiparticles, with antiparticles being particles carrying a negative sign.

Self-duality in the continuum We generalize classical and orthogonal dualities beyond the framework of lattice systems, including e.g. random walks on general state spaces and interacting Brownian motions. Using some natural concepts from point process theory together with the notion of consistency, we introduce two intertwining relations which in the case of lattice systems give the known ``classical’’ and orthogonal dualities for exclusion and inclusion processes. We provide several examples including the inclusion process in the continuum. Based on joint work with S. Floreani (Delft), S. Jansen (Munich), S. Wagner (Munich).

Self-duality for particle systems via (q-)orthogonal polynomials In this talk I will present some results regarding self-duality for two families of symmetric and asymmetric interacting particle systems. The method relies on their algebraic description and give rise to self-duality functions which are families of orthogonal polynomials in case of symmetric processes and q-orthogonal polynomials in case of asymmetric processes.
