## Abstract

The asymmetric simple exclusion process with additional Langmuir kinetics, i.e. attachment and detachment in the bulk, is a paradigmatic model for intracellular transport. Here we study this model in the presence of randomly distributed inhomogeneities ('defects'). Using Monte Carlo simulations, we find a multitude of coexisting high- and low-density domains. The results are generic for one-dimensional driven diffusive systems with short-range interactions and can be understood in terms of a local extremal principle for the current profile. This principle is used to determine current profiles and phase diagrams as well as statistical properties of ensembles of defect samples.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
