Abstract
In this paper we discuss a family of models of particle and energy diffusion on a one-dimensional lattice, related to those studied previously in Sasamoto and Wadati (Phys Rev E 58:4181–4190, 1998), Barraquand and Corwin (Probab Theory Relat Fields 167(3–4):1057–1116, 2017) and Povolotsky (J Phys A 46(46):465205, 2013) in the context of KPZ universality class. We show that they may be mapped onto an integrable \({\mathfrak {sl}}(2)\) Heisenberg spin chain whose Hamiltonian density in the bulk has been already studied in the AdS/CFT and the integrable system literature. Using the quantum inverse scattering method, we study various new aspects, in particular we identify boundary terms, modeling reservoirs in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics models, for which the spin chain (and thus also the stochastic process) continues to be integrable. We also show how the construction of a “dual model” of probability theory is possible and useful. The fluctuating hydrodynamics of our stochastic model corresponds to the semiclassical evolution of a string that derives from correlation functions of local gauge invariant operators of \(\mathcal {N}=4\) super Yang–Mills theory (SYM), in imaginary-time. As any stochastic system, it has a supersymmetric completion that encodes for the thermal equilibrium theorems: we show that in this case it is equivalent to the \({\mathfrak {sl}}(2|1)\) superstring that has been derived directly from \(\mathcal {N}=4\) SYM.

Notes
This may be seen directly by making the change of variables \(\bar{\eta } \rightarrow -2\bar{\xi } \), \( \eta \rightarrow \xi \) for fermions, \(\hat{\rho } \rightarrow 2\tilde{\rho }\) for the response field and \(S \rightarrow 2S\) for the action. Note that our \(\rho \) is not theirs, which is the ‘radial’ coordinate of the hyperboloid.

Appendices
Taylor Expansion
1.1 Derivation (2.15)
The action of the bulk generator \(-\mathcal {H}^t_{i,i+1}\) on a function of the rescaled variables \((x_i^{(M)}, x_{i+1}^{(M)})\) reads
We only consider the scaling limit of the right jumps, the proof is analogous for the left jumps. On one hand we notice that, by a bivariate Taylor expansion, we may write
This implies
where the convergence of the Riemann sum
has been exploited. On the other hand we may also write
The right hand sides of (A.3) and (A.5) do coincide, thus concluding the proof.
1.2 Derivation (2.16)
The action of the bulk generator \(-\mathcal {H}^t_{1}\) on a function of the rescaled variables \(x_1^{(M)}\) reads
By Taylor expansion, we may write
This yields in the limit
where, besides (A.4), it has been used the convergence
Clearly, the right hand sides of (A.8) coincides with the right hand side of (2.16).
Infinite Sums
1.1 Derivation (3.39)
It is straightforward to see that (3.39) is true for \(k\le l\). In the case \(k>l\) the sum reduces to
where we first used
and exchanged the sums in the second step.
1.2 Derivation (3.41)
After noting that the first sum truncates and shifting the second sum we rewrite (3.41) as
The case \(k>l\) in (3.41) is straightforward, the denominator is finite while the numerator diverges. For \(k\le l\) one has to be more careful. One gets
To show the remaining relations we substitute
Using the binomial series
we get for \(k=l\)
For \(k<l\) we get
Finally noting that
we obtain the final result.
