Abstract: Introduced by David Aldous in a series of lectures and expository articles, the Averaging process is a Markovian mass redistribution model on a graph, roughly described as follows: each vertex is initially assigned a real-valued mass, and at exponential times pairs of neighboring vertices split their mass equally among them. In this seminar I will present some recent results (mostly based on a joint work with Matteo Quattropani) on the mixing and scaling limits of a generalization of the Averaging process and its discrete dual.
