Markov Chains and Monte Carlo Methods

For a fully synchronous asymmetric exclusion process with open or closed boundaries only partial analytic results are known owing to the appearance of strong-short range correlations, which invalidate simple mean-field approximations. Here we present a new method for calculating basic properties of nonequilibrium steady states, and calculate densities, fluxes, travel times, spatial and temporal correlation functions, phase diagrams, profiles and widths of boundary layers and interfaces between phases in coexistence, as well as their microstructures.
