An Exactly Solvable Two-Way Traffic Model With Ordered Sequential Update

Within the formalism of matrix product ansatz, we study a two-species asymmetric exclusion process with backward and forward site-ordered sequential update. This model, which was originally introduced with the random sequential update, describes a two-way traffic flow with a dynamic impurity and shows a phase transition between the free flow and traffic jam. We investigate the characteristics of this jamming and examine similarities and differences between our results and those with random sequential update.Comment: 25 pages, Revtex, 7 ps file

Dilemma game in a cellular automaton model with a non-signalized intersection

We numerically study traffic flow, energy dissipation and social payoff in the Nagel-Schreckenberg model with a non-signalized intersection. In terms of game theory, we analyze dilemma game observed in some traffic states. There are four traffic phases: free-flow phase, phase-segregated 1, phase-segregated 2 and jammed phase in the case of vmax > 1. In phase-segregated 1, maximum traffic flow corresponds to minimal energy dissipation. Dilemma game is observed at the phase-segregated 1 in the case of vmax > 1, and phase segregation state when vmax = 1. Theoretical analyses give an agreement with numerical results
