Résumé |
Single-file transport, where particles diffuse in narrow channels while not
overtaking each other, is a fundamental model for the tracer subdiffusion observed in
confined systems, such as zeolites or carbon nanotubes. This anomalous behavior
originates from strong bath-tracer correlations in 1D, which we characterise in this
talk through Generalised Density Profiles (GDPs). These GDPs have however remained
elusive, because they involve an infinite hierarchy of equations. Here, for the
Symmetric Exclusion Process, a paradigmatic model of single-file diffusion, we break
the hierarchy and unveil a closed equation satisfied by these correlations, which we
solve. Beyond quantifying the correlations, the central role of this equation as a
novel tool for interacting particle systems will be further demonstrated by showing
that it applies to out-of equilibrium situations, other observables and other
representative single-file systems.
