Hydrodynamics of a class of $N$-urn linear systems

In this paper we are concerned with hydrodynamics of a class of $N$-urn linear systems, which include voter models, pair-symmetric exclusion processes and binary contact path processes on $N$ urns as special cases. We show that the hydrodynamic limit of our process is driven by a $\left(C[0,1]\right)^\prime$-valued linear ordinary differential equation and the fluctuation of our process, i.e, central limit theorem from the hydrodynamic limit, is driven by a $\left(C[0, 1]\right)^\prime$-valued Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. To derive above main results, we need several replacement lemmas. An extension in linear systems of Chapman-Kolmogorov equation plays key role in proofs of these replacement lemmas.
