I thought so too, until I started reading Liggett's book "Interacting particle systems", I haven't found a formal definition yet (maybe its the same as in definition as for free boundary problems....) but all of them seem to be Markov processes where the state space is a field (the most famous example is the stochastic Ising model). I will dwell on those things in this article ([[User:Nestor|Nestor]] 21:39, 2 February 2012 (CST))

Indeed, I think ''particle systems'' is a little bit too wide: it may include stochastic particle systems or also the particle systems from kinetic theory. It seems that in the literature the name ''interacting particle system'' is only used for stochastic systems à la Liggett (see also ''Scaling Limits of Interacting Particle Systems'' by Kipnis-Landim)--[[User:Milton|Milton]] 11:58, 9 February 2012 (CST).

I thought that particle systems was a generic name for a variety of models. I will check because if that is true this article should have a more specific name. (Luis 10:56, 2 February 2012 (CST))
