Abstract

Collective phenomena in stochastic particle systems are surveyed.

Macroscopic field equations describe the evolution of some of these systems just like the hydrodynamical equations describe the dynamics of real physical fluids.

Shock wave phenomena and metastable behavior are also investigated.

Research partially supported by Nato grant n. 040.82 and by the "Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche".
