Abstract
- Resetting is a renewal mechanism in which a process is intermittently repeated after a random or fixed time. This simple act of stop and repeat profoundly influences the behaviour of a system as exemplified by the emergence of non-equilibrium properties and expedition of search processes. Herein, we explore the ramifications of stochastic resetting in the context of a single-file system called random average process (RAP) in one dimension. In particular, we focus on the dynamics of tracer particles and analytically compute the variance, equal time correlation, autocorrelation and unequal time correlation between the positions of different tracer particles. Our study unveils that resetting gives rise to rather different behaviours depending on whether the particles move symmetrically or asymmetrically. For the asymmetric case, the system for instance exhibits a long-range correlation which is not seen in absence of the resetting. Similarly, in contrast to the reset-free RAP, the variance shows distinct scalings for symmetric and asymmetric cases. While for the symmetric case, it decays (towards its steady value) as $\sim e^{-r t} / \sqrt{t}$, we find $\sim t e^{-r t}$ decay for the asymmetric case ($r$ being the resetting rate). Finally, we examine the autocorrelation and unequal time correlation in the steady state and demonstrate that they obey interesting scaling forms at late times. All our analytical results are substantiated by extensive numerical simulations.<br />Comment: 16 pages, 7 figures
