We present the corresponding result for the intermediate geometry of a semi-infinite line coupled with a single reservoir. These results are obtained using the fluctuating hydrodynamics framework of the macroscopic fluctuation theory and confirmed by rare event simulations using a cloning algorithm. Our exact result enables us to address the corresponding problem on an infinite line in the presence of a slow region and several related problems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-05-01T17:32:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "symmetric simple exclusion process", "semi-infinite line", "large deviations", "slow bonds", "exact result" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
