Hydrodynamic limit for the boundary driven zero-range process

At least 11 years old · documented by

Let INI_N be the lattice site set, let ΩN\Omega_N be the configuration space, and let {μN}N∈N\{\mu^N\}_{N\in\mathbb N} be probability measures on ΩN\Omega_N satisfying μN≤νˉN\mu^N\leq\bar\nu^N. Suppose that {μN}\{\mu^N\} is associated with a continuous profile γ:[0,1]→R+\gamma:[0,1]\to\mathbb R_+, and let PμN\mathbb P_{\mu^N} denote the law of the process with generator N2LNN^2L_N. For each t∈[0,T]t\in[0,T], let G:[0,1]→RG:[0,1]\to\mathbb R be continuous and let δ>0\delta>0. Hydrodynamic limit. Then

lim⁡N→+∞PμN[∣1N∑x∈ING(xN)ηt(x)−∫01G(u)ρt(u) du∣>δ]=0,\lim_{N\to+\infty}\mathbb P_{\mu^N}\left[\left|\frac{1}{N}\sum_{x\in I_N}G\left(\frac{x}{N}\right)\eta_t(x)-\int_0^1G(u)\rho_t(u)\,du\right|>\delta\right]=0,

where, for θ=1\theta=1, ρt(u)\rho_t(u) is a weak solution of the hydrodynamic equation with Robin boundary condition (κ=1\kappa=1), while, for θ>1\theta>1, it is a weak solution with Neumann boundary condition (κ=0\kappa=0). The claim is the expected hydrodynamic limit for the process; the source explicitly says that parts of the proof were not yet completed, so the result remains conjectural.
