Some Examples of Dynamics for Gelfand Tsetlin Patterns

Abstract

We give examples of stochastic processes in the Gelfand Tsetlin cone in which each component evolves independently apart from a blocking and pushing interaction. The processes give couplings to certain conditioned Markov processes, last passage times and asymetric exclusion processes. An example of a cone valued process whose components cannot escape past a wall at the origin is also considered.
