Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process, a  paradigm for non-equilibrium physics

The asymmetric simple exclusion process  plays the role of  a  paradigm to study various aspects of non-equilibrium statistical physics.  It is a minimal model of  driven interacting particles,  that displays  interesting    collective behaviour and breaks time-reversal symmetry.  This system  appears as a building block in   more realistic descriptions of  low-dimensional  classical transport with   constraints such as biophysical flow or urban traffic. 

During the last twenty years, numerous  exact solutions   have been obtained  for the  exclusion process and have lead us to a better understanding of  non-equilibrium behaviour. The aim of this talk is to review  some  representative results   about this  model, describe the methods involved  and present some recent developments.
