Hydrodynamic limit of multi-chain driven diffusive models

Abstract

A new class of models, generalizing Asymmetric Exclusion Process for many parallel interacting channels, is proposed. We couple the models with boundary reservoirs, study boundary-driven phase transitions and show that usually taken hydrodynamic description fails. The adequate hydrodynamic limit is then derived. We support our findings with Monte-Carlo simulations of the original stochastic system.
