Multiple-transit paths and density correlation functions in PASEP

We consider the partially asymmetric simple exclusion process (PASEP) when its steady-state probability distribution function can be written in terms of a linear superposition of product measures with a finite number of shocks. In this case the PASEP can be mapped into an equilibrium walk model, defined on a diagonally rotated square lattice, in which each path of the walk model has several transits with the horizontal axis. We particularly show that the multiple-point density correlation function in the PASEP is related to the probability that a path has multiple contacts with the horizontal axis from the above or below.
