Theory of Single File Diffusion in a Force Field

The dynamics of hard-core interacting Brownian particles in an external potential field is studied in one dimension. Using the Jepsen line we find a very general and simple formula relating the motion of the tagged center particle, with the classical, time dependent single particle reflection R and...
