Asymmetric stochastic transport models with ${\mathcal{U}}_q(\mathfrak{su}(1,1))$ symmetry (1507.01478v1)

Abstract: By using the algebraic construction outlined in \cite{CGRS}, we introduce several Markov processes related to the ${\mathcal{U}}_q(\mathfrak{su}(1,1))$ quantum Lie algebra. These processes serve as asymmetric transport models and their algebraic structure easily allows to deduce duality properties of the systems. The results include: (a) the asymmetric version of the Inclusion Process, which is self-dual; (b) the diffusion limit of this process, which is a natural asymmetric analogue of the Brownian Energy Process and which turns out to have the symmetric Inclusion Process as a dual process; (c) the asymmetric analogue of the KMP Process, which also turns out to have a symmetric dual process. We give applications of the various duality relations by computing exponential moments of the current.
