  We have performed extensive simulations of random sequential adsorption and
diffusion of $k$-mers, up to $k=5$ in two dimensions with particular attention
to the case $k=2$. We focus on the behavior of the coverage and of vacancy
dynamics as a function of time. We observe that for $k=2,3$ a complete coverage
of the lattice is never reached, because of the existence of frozen
configurations that prevent isolated vacancies in the lattice to join. From
this result we argue that complete coverage is never attained for any value of
$k$. The long time behavior of the coverage is not mean field and nonanalytic,
with $t^{-1/2}$ as leading term. Long time coverage regimes are independent of
the initial conditions while strongly depend on the diffusion probability and
deposition rate and, in particular, different values of these parameters lead
to different final values of the coverage. The geometrical complexity of these
systems is also highlighted through an investigation of the vacancy population
dynamics.
