Duality and Hidden Symmetries in Interacting Particle Systems

Abstract: In the context of Markov processes, both in discrete and continuous setting, we show a general relation between duality functions and symmetries of the generator. If the generator can be written in the form of a Hamiltonian of a quantum spin system, then the "hidden" symmetries are easily derived. We illustrate our approach in processes of symmetric exclusion type, in which the symmetry is of SU(2) type, as well as for the KipnisMarchioro-Presutti (KMP) model for which we unveil its SU(1, 1) symmetry. The KMP … Show more

“…Such underlying structure is usually provided by a Lie algebra naturally associated to the generator of the process. The first result in this direction was given in [24] for the symmetric process, while a systematic and general approach has been described in [6,12]. When passing from symmetric to asymmetric processes, one has to change from the original Lie algebra to the corresponding deformed quantum Lie algebra, where the deformation parameter is related to the asymmetry.…”

“…In this mapping the spins are represented by 2 × 2 matrices satisfying the sl 2 algebra. By considering higher values of the spins, represented by (2 j + 1)-dimensional matrices with j ∈ N/2, one obtains the generalized Symmetric Simple Exclusion Process with up to 2 j particles per site (SSEP(2 j) for short), sometimes also called "partial exclusion" [5,12,24]. Namely, denoting by η i ∈ {0, 1, .…”
