AbstractWe study a one-dimensional spin (interacting particle) system, with product Bernoulli (p) stationary distribution, in which a site can flip only when its left neighbor is in state +1. Such models have been studied in physics as simple exemplars of systems exhibiting slow relaxation. In our “East” model the natural conjecture is that the relaxation time τ(p), that is 1/(spectral gap), satisfies log τ(p)∼ $$\tfrac{{\log ^2 (1/p)}}{{\log 2}}$$ as p↓0. We prove this up to a factor of 2…
