Absorbing-state phase transition and activated random walks with unbounded capacities

In this article, we study the existence of an absorbing-state phase transition of an Abelian process that generalises the Activated Random Walk (ARW). Given a vertex transitive $G=(V,E)$, we associate to each site $x \in V$ a capacity $w_x \ge 0$, which describes how many inactive particles $x$ can hold, where $\{w_x\}_{x \in V}$ is a collection of i.i.d random variables. When $G$ is an amenable graph, we prove that if $\mathbb E[w_x]<\infty$, the model goes through an absorbing state phase transition and if $\mathbb E[w_x]=\infty$, the model fixates for all $λ>0$. Moreover, in the former case, we provide bounds for the critical density that match the ones available in the classical Activated Random Walk.
