Two new interacting particle systems are introduced in this paper: dynamic versions of the asymmetric inclusion process (ASIP) and the asymmetric Brownian energy process (ABEP). Dualities and reversibility of these processes are proven, where the quantum algebra Uq(su(1,1)) and the Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials play a crucial role. Two hierarchies of duality functions are found, where the Askey-Wilson polynomials and Jacobi polynomials sit on top.

In this paper, a generalized version of dynamic asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) is introduced, and it is shown that the process has a Markov duality property with the same process on the reversed lattice. The duality functions are multivariate q-Racah polynomials, and the corresponding orthogonality measure is the reversible measure of the process. By taking limits in the generator of dynamic ASEP, its reversible measure, and the duality functions, we obtain orthogonal and triangular dualities for several other interacting particle systems. In this sense, the duality of dynamic ASEP sits on top of a hierarchy of many dualities. For the construction of the process, we rely on representation theory of the quantum algebra U q ( sl 2 ) . In the standard representation, the generator of generalized ASEP can be constructed from the coproduct of the Casimir. After a suitable change of representation, we obtain the generator of dynamic ASEP. The corresponding intertwiner is constructed from q-Krawtchouk polynomials, which arise as eigenfunctions of twisted primitive elements. This gives a duality between dynamic ASEP and generalized ASEP with q-Krawtchouk polynomials as duality functions. Using this duality, we show the (almost) self-duality of dynamic ASEP.

An algebra is introduced which can be considered as a rank 2 extension of the Askey–Wilson algebra. Relations in this algebra are motivated by relations between coproducts of twisted primitive elements in the two-fold tensor product of the quantum algebra U_q (sl(2, C)). It is shown that bivariate q-Racah polynomials appear as overlap coefficients of eigenvectors of generators of the algebra. Furthermore, the corresponding q-difference operators are calculated using the defining relations of the algebra, showing that it encodes the bispectral properties of the bivariate q-Racah polynomials.
