Großkinsky, Stefan; Spohn, Herbert Stationary measures and hydrodynamics of zero range processes with several species of particles. (English) Zbl 1083.82019 Bull. Braz. Math. Soc. (N.S.) 34, No. 3, 489-507 (2003). We study general zero range processes with different types of particles on a \(d\)-dimensional lattice with periodic boundary conditions. A necessary and sufficient condition on the jump rates for the existence of stationary product measures is established. For translation invariant jump rates we prove the hydrodynamic limit on the Euler scale using Yau’s relative entropy method. The limit equation is a system of conservation laws, which is hyperbolic and has a globally convex entropy. We analyze this system in terms of entropy variables. In addition we obtain stationary density profiles for open boundaries.
