Reversible-scale conjecture for symmetric condensate transitions

About 6 years old · traced to

Let S⋆S_{\star} be the set of sites on which the condensate may reside, and let r(x,y)r(x,y) be the jump rates of the underlying random walk. Let Yrv(⋅)Y^{\mathrm{rv}}(\cdot) be the Markov chain on S⋆S_{\star} with rates arv(x,y)=r(x,y)a^{\mathrm{rv}}(x,y)=r(x,y), and set θNrv=1/dN\theta_N^{\mathrm{rv}}=1/d_N. Reversible-scale conjecture. Suppose that

r(x,y)=r(y,x)for all x,y∈S⋆r(x,y)=r(y,x)\quad\text{for all }x,y\in S_{\star}

and lim⁡dNlog⁡N=0\lim d_N\log N=0. Then the movement of the condensate is described by the Markov chain Yrv(⋅)Y^{\mathrm{rv}}(\cdot) on S⋆S_{\star} with scale θNrv\theta_N^{\mathrm{rv}}. When the antisymmetric rates vanish on S⋆S_{\star}, the non-reversible scale is too short to observe transitions, and the reversible scale is expected to be the correct one; this remains unproved in the source.
