We prove that the variance of the current across a characteristic is of order t in a stationary asymmetric simple exclusion process, and that the diffusivity has order t. The proof proceeds via couplings to show the corresponding moment bounds for a second class particle.

Tiie classification of the Civil Surgeoncies under the direct control of the Foreign Office, which appeared in the Gazette of India of the 12th September, has taken us by surprise. We knew, from sad experience in other cases, that the number of first-class stations was likely to be very small, but we certainly were not prepared to see only Indore and Rajpoo...

This paper presents an algorithm for implementing a k-ary regular register (the logical register) using k(k -1 )/2 binary regular registers (the physical registers) that requires only one physical write per logical write. The algorithm is simple to describe and depends on properties of paths in a related graph. Two lower bounds on the number of registers required by one-write implementations ar...
