Streszczenie
Nonequilibrium collective motion is ubiquitous in nature and often results in a rich collection of intriguing phenomena, such as the formation of shocks or patterns, subdiffusive kinetics, traffic jams, and nonequilibrium phase transitions.
These stochastic many-body features characterize transport processes
in biology, soft condensed matter and, possibly, also in nanoscience.
Inspired by these applications, a wide class of lattice-gas models has
recently been considered.
Building on the celebrated totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP)
and a generalization accounting for the exchanges with a reservoir,
we discuss the qualitative and quantitative nonequilibrium properties of
these model systems. We specifically analyze the case of a dimeric lattice gas, the transport in the presence
of pointwise disorder and along coupled tracks.
