Abstract
In this paper, we study run-and-tumble particles moving on two copies of the discrete torus (referred to as layers), where the switching rate between layers depends on a mean-field interaction among the particles. We derive the hydrodynamic limit of this model, as well as the large deviations from the hydrodynamic limit. Our main tool is the introduction of a weakly perturbed version of the system, whose hydrodynamic equations precisely characterize the trajectories associated with large deviations.
