Statement of Theorem 3 is corrected", "doi": "10.1007/s00220-007-0242-2", "categories": [ "math.PR", "math-ph", "math.MP" ], "abstract": "We consider finite-range asymmetric exclusion processes on $\\mathbb Z$ with non-zero drift. The diffusivity $D(t)$ is expected to be of ${\\mathcal O}(t^{1/3})$. We prove that $D(t)\\ge Ct^{1/3}$ in the weak (Tauberian) sense that $\\int_0^\\infty e^{-\\lambda t}tD(t)dt \\ge C\\lambda^{-7/3}$ as $\\lambda\\to 0$. The proof employs the resolvent method to make a direct comparison with the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process, for which the result is a consequence of the scaling limit for the two-point function recently obtained by Ferrari and Spohn. In the nearest neighbor case, we show further that $tD(t)$ is monotone, and hence we can conclude that $D(t)\\ge Ct^{1/3}(\\log t)^{-7/3}$ in the usual sense.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2006-10-23T17:46:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K35", "82C22" ], "keywords": [ "finite-range asymmetric exclusion processes", "totally asymmetric simple exclusion process", "superdiffusivity", "nearest neighbor case", "usual sense" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer", "journal": "Commun.
