A general criterion for phase separation in one dimensional nonequilibrium
systems was recently given in [1]. This is based on results for the zero
range process, which can be viewed as a generic model for domain dynamics
in one dimension. For large volume, if the particle density exceeds a
critical value, the system exhibits phase separation in a condensed and
non-condensed phase in the steady state. In [2] Evans introduced a generic
example of such a zero range process, where the presence of this
condensation phenomenon depends on a system parameter. We study the
stationary behaviour of this system in detail and analyze the coarsening
phenomenon during dynamical evolution, extending the results in [2]. We
also prove two theorems on the equivalence of ensembles and on the form of
typical configurations in the condensated steady state for general zero
range processes.
