Simulations of driven and reconstituting lattice gases
We discuss stationary aspects of a set of driven lattice gases in which hard-core particles with spatial extent, covering more than one lattice site, diffuse and reconstruct in one dimension under nearest-neighbor interactions. As in the uncoupled case [M. Barma <i>et al.</i>, J. Phys.:...

| Sumario: | We discuss stationary aspects of a set of driven lattice gases in which hard-core particles with spatial extent, covering more than one lattice site, diffuse and reconstruct in one dimension under nearest-neighbor interactions. As in the uncoupled case [M. Barma <i>et al.</i>, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 19, 065112 (2007)], the dynamics of the phase space breaks up into an exponentially large number of mutually disconnected sectors labeled by a nonlocal construct, the irreducible string. Depending on whether the particle couplings are taken attractive or repulsive, simulations in most of the studied sectors show that both steady state currents and pair correlations behave quite differently at low temperature regimes. For repulsive interactions an order-by-disorder transition is suggested. |
