Hydrodynamic Limits and Propagation of Chaos for Interacting Random Walks in Domains

A new non-conservative stochastic reaction-diffusion system in which two families of random walks in two adjacent domains interact near the interface is introduced and studied in this paper. Such a system can be used to model the transport of positive and negative charges in a solar cell or the population dynamics of two segregated species under competition. We show that in the macroscopic limit, the particle densities converge to the solution of a coupled nonlinear heat equations. For this, we first prove that propagation of chaos holds by establishing the uniqueness of a new BBGKY hierarchy. A local central limit theorem for reflected diffusions in bounded Lipschitz domains is also established as a crucial tool.
