Stochastic optimisation method for estimating large deviations
Daniël W. H. Cloete, Hugo Touchette
A stochastic optimisation method was recently proposed to efficiently compute large deviation functions, used in statistical physics to characterise the fluctuations of nonequilibr…
Linear approximations of large deviations: Cubic diffusion test
Pelerine Tsobgni Nyawo, Hugo Touchette
We propose a method for approximating the large deviation rate function of time-integrated observables of diffusion processes, used in statistical physics to characterize the fluct…
An introduction to large deviations with applications in physics
Ivan N. Burenev, Daniël W. H. Cloete, Vansh Kharbanda +1
These notes are based on the lectures that one of us (HT) gave at the Summer School on the "Theory of Large Deviations and Applications", held in July 2024 at Les Houches in France…
Granular Brownian motion with dry friction
A. Gnoli, A. Puglisi, H. Touchette
The interplay between Coulomb friction and random excitations is studied experimentally by means of a rotating probe in contact with a stationary granular gas. The granular materia…
Information-Theoretic Limits of Control
Hugo Touchette, Seth Lloyd
Fundamental limits on the controllability of physical systems are discussed in the light of information theory. It is shown that the second law of thermodynamics, when generalized…
Role of symmetry and dimension on pseudogap phenomena
S. Allen, H. Touchette, S. Moukouri +2
The attractive Hubbard model in d=2 is studied through Monte Carlo simulations at intermediate coupling. There is a crossover temperature where a pseudogap appears with conco…
