title: Exact solution of a class of one-dimensional nonequilibrium stochastic models.
abstract: We consider various one-dimensional nonequilibrium models, namely, the diffusion-limited pair-annihilation and creation model (DPAC) and its unbiased version (the Lushnikov model), the DPAC model with particle injection, as well as (biased) diffusion-limited coagulation model (DC). We study the DPAC model using an approach based on a duality transformation and the generating function of the dual model. We are able to compute exactly the density and correlation functions in the general case with arbitrary initial states. Further, we assume that a source injects particles in the system. Solving, via the duality transformation, the equations of motion of the density, and the noninstantaneous two-point correlation functions, we see how the source affects the dynamics. Finally we extend the previous results to the DC model with help of a similarity transformation.
