Model study on steady heat capacity in driven stochastic systems
Jiri Pesek, Eliran Boksenbojm, Karel Netocny
We explore two- and three-state Markov models driven out of thermal equilibrium by non-potential forces to demonstrate basic properties of the steady heat capacity based on the con…
Heat capacity in nonequilibrium steady states
Eliran Boksenbojm, Christian Maes, Karel Netocny +1
We show how to extend the concept of heat capacity to nonequilibrium systems. The main idea is to consider the excess heat released by an already dissipative system when slowly cha…
Monotone return to steady nonequilibrium
Christian Maes, Karel Netocny, Bram Wynants
We propose and analyze a new candidate Lyapunov function for relaxation towards general nonequilibrium steady states. The proposed functional is obtained from the large time asympt…
Monotonicity of the dynamical activity
Christian Maes, Karel Netocny, Bram Wynants
The Donsker-Varadhan rate function for occupation-time fluctuations has been seen numerically to exhibit monotone return to stationary nonequilibrium [Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 010601…
