Abstract

In (Ann. Probab. 39 (4) (2011) 1205–1242) Amir, Angel and Valkó studied a multi-type version of the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) and introduced the TASEP speed process, which allowed them to answer delicate questions about the joint distribution of the speed of several second-class particles in the TASEP rarefaction fan. In this paper we introduce the analogue of the TASEP speed process for the totally asymmetric zero-range process (TAZRP), and use it to obtain new results on the joint distribution of the speed of several second-class particles in the TAZRP with a reservoir. These is a close link from the speed process to questions about stationary distributions of multi-type versions of the TAZRP; for example we are able to give a precise description of the contents of a single site in equilibrium for a multi-type TAZRP with continuous labels.
