| dc.description | For stochastic processes leading to condensation, the condensate, once it is formed, performs an ergodic stationary-state motion over the system. We analyse this motion, and especially its characteristic time, for zero-range processes. The characteristic time is found to grow with the system size much faster than the diffusive timescale, but not exponentially fast. This holds both in the mean-field geometry and on finite-dimensional lattices. In the generic situation where the critical mass distribution follows a power law, the characteristic time grows as a power of the system size. | |
