Exact solution of asymmetric diffusion with N classes of particles of arbitrary size and hierarchical order

The exact solution of the asymmetric exclusion problem with N distinct classes of particles (c = 1, 2, ..., N), with hierarchical order is presented. In this model the particles (size 1) are located at lattice points, and diffuse with equal asymmetric rates, but particles in a class c do not distinguish those in the classes c' > c from holes (empty sites). We generalize and solve exactly this model by considering the molecules in each distinct class c = 1, 2, ..., N with sizes s c (s c = 0, 1, 2, ...), in units of the lattice spacing. The solution is derived via a Bethe ansatz of nested type.
