Consider a system of particles performing nearest neighbor random walks on the lattice \ZZ under hard--core interaction. The rate for a jump over a given bond is direction--independent and the inverse of the jump rates are i.i.d. random variables belonging to the domain of attraction of an \a--stable law, 0<\a<1. This exclusion process models conduction in strongly disordered one-dimensional media. We prove that, when varying over the disorder and for a suitable slowly varying function L, under the super-diffusive time scaling N1 + 1/αL(N), the density profile evolves as the solution of the random equation ∂t ρ= \mf LW ρ, where \mf LW is the generalized second-order differential operator \frac ddu \frac ddW in which W is a double sided \a--stable subordinator. This result follows from a quenched hydrodynamic limit in the case that the i.i.d. jump rates are replaced by a suitable array \ξN,x : x∈\bb Z\ having same distribution and fulfilling an a.s. invariance principle. We also prove a law of large numbers for a tagged particle.
