In this paper, we deal with an equilibrium Kawasaki dynamics which has a Gibbs measure $mu$ as invariant measure. We study a scaling limit of such a dynamics, derived through a scaling of the jump rate. Informally, we expect that, in the limit, only jumps of ``infinite length'' will survive, i.e., we expect to arrive at a Glauber dynamics in continuum (a birth-and-death process in $\\mathbb{R}^d$). We prove that, in the low activity-high temperature regime, the generators of the Kawasaki dynamics converge to the generator of a Glauber dynamics. The convergence is on the set of exponential functions, in the $L^2(\\mu)$-norm. Furthermore, additionally assuming that the potential of pair interaction is positive, we prove the weak convergence of the finite-dimensional distributions of the processes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-08-02T09:24:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K35", "60J75", "60J80", "82C21", "82C22" ], "keywords": [ "equilibrium glauber dynamics", "continuous particle systems", "scaling limit", "low activity-high temperature regime", "equilibrium kawasaki dynamics" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......8051F" } } }
