Abstract
We consider two distinct models of particle systems. In the first we have an infinite collection of identical Markov processes starting at random throughout Euclidean space. In the second a random sign is associated with each process. An interaction mechanism is introduced in each case via intersection local times, and the fluctuation theory of the systems studied as the processes become dense in space. In the first case the fluctuation theory always turns out to be Gaussian, regardless of the order of the intersections taken to introduce the interaction mechanism. In the second case, an interaction mechanism based on kth order intersections leads to a fluctuation theory akin to a :φ k: Euclidean quantum field theory. We consider the consequences of these results and relate them to different models previously studied in the literature.
