On the generalized Langevin equation for a Rouse bead in a nonequilibrium bath

Hans Vandebroek, Carlo Vanderzande

We present the reduced dynamics of a bead in a Rouse chain which is submerged in a bath containing a driving agent that renders it out-of-equilibrium. We first review the generaliz…

Step Heat Profile in Localized Chains

Wojciech De Roeck, Abhishek Dhar, Francois Huveneers +1

We consider two types of strongly disordered one-dimensional Hamiltonian systems coupled to baths (energy or particle reservoirs) at the boundaries: strongly disordered quantum spi…

Nonequilibrium physics aspects of probabilistic cellular automata

Christian Maes

Probabilistic cellular automata (PCA) are used to model a variety of discrete spatially extended systems undergoing parallel-updating. We propose an embedding of a number of classi…

What decides the direction of a current?

Christian Maes

Nonequilibria show currents that are maintained as the result of a steady driving. We ask here what decides their direction. It is not only the second law, or the positivity of the…

Driving-induced stability with long-range effects

Urna Basu, Pierre de Buyl, Christian Maes +1

We give a sufficient condition under which an applied rotation on medium particles stabilizes a slow probe in the rotation center. The symmetric part of the stiffness matrix thus g…

Non-dissipative effects in nonequilibrium systems

Christian Maes

Studying the role of activity parameters and the nature of time-symmetric path-variables constitutes an important part of nonequilibrium physics, so we argue. The relevant variable…
