contents We describe some recently discovered connections between one-dimensional interacting particle models and Macdonald polynomials. The first such model is the multispecies asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) on a ring, linked to the symmetric Macdonald polynomial $P_λ(X;q,t)$ through its partition function. Through this connection, a new formula was found for $P_λ$ by generalizing multiline queues, which were introduced by Martin in 2018 to compute stationary probabilities of the ASEP. The second particle model is the multispecies totally asymmetric zero range process (TAZRP) on a ring, which was very recently found to have an analogous connection to the modified Macdonald polynomial $\widetilde{H}_λ(X;q,t)$ through its partition function. This discovery coincided with a new formula for $\widetilde{H}_λ$, this time in terms of tableaux with a queue inversion statistic, which also compute stationary probabilities of the TAZRP. We explain the plethystic relationship between multiline queues and queue inversion tableaux, and along the way, derive a new formula for $P_λ$ using the queue inversion statistic. This plethystic correspondence is closely related to fusion in the setting of integrable systems.
