Ho il piacere di invitarvi al seguente seminario, che si terrà giovedì 10 dicembre, alle 11:30, in Aula 2BC30 della Torre Archimede presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università degli Studi di Padova. SPEAKER: Sander Dommers AFFILIATION: Ruhr University Bochum TITLE: Metastability in the reversible inclusion process ABSTRACT: In the reversible inclusion process with N particles on a finite graph, each particle at a site x jumps to site y at rate (d+n_y) r(x,y), where d is a diffusion parameter, n_y is the number of particles on site y and r(x,y) is the jump rate from x to y of an underlying reversible random walk. When the diffusion d converges to 0 as N goes to infinity, the particles cluster together to form a condensate. It turns out that these condensates only form on the sites where the underlying random walk spends the most time. Once such a condensate is formed the particles stick together and the condensate performs a random walk itself on much longer timescales, which can be seen as metastable behavior. We study the rates at which the condensate jumps and show that in the reversible case there are several time scales on which these jumps occur depending on how far (in graph distance) the sites are from each other. This generalizes work by Grosskinsky, Redig and Vafayi who study the symmetric case where only one timescale is present. Our analysis is based on the martingale approach by Beltrán and Landim. This is work in progress jointly with Alessandra Bianchi and Cristian Giardinà. -- Alessandra Bianchi Dip. di Matematica Università di Padova Via Trieste, 63 - 35121 Padova, Italy phone: +39 049 827 14 06 fax: +39 049 827 14 28 e-mail: bianchi(a)math.unipd.it http://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/
