Abstract:
We consider dynamics of lozenge tiling, or equivalently that of dimer covers of honeycomb lattice, or 3D Young diagrams. One can choose the flip rate to satisfy the so-called gradient condition. The hydrodynamic limit of this model was studied by Laslier and Toninelli under the periodic boundary condition. We discuss the corresponding large deviation principle. This is ongoing project with Fabio Toninelli and Kenkichi Tsunoda.
