Journal of Statistical Physics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

We introduce k-step exclusion processes as generalizations of the simple exclusion process. We state their main equilibrium properties when the underlying stochastic matrix corresponds to a random walk or is positive recurrent and reversible. Finally, we prove laws of large numbers for tagged and second-class particles
