Annihilating random walks and perfect matchings of planar graphs

Authors: Massimiliano Mattera

We study annihilating random walks on $\mathbb{Z}$ using techniques of P.W. Kasteleyn and $R$. Kenyonon perfect matchings of planar graphs. We obtain the asymptotic of the density of remaining particles and the partition function of the underlying statistical mechanical model.
