Fluctuation theorem and large deviation function for a solvable model of a molecular motor
D. Lacoste, A. W. C. Lau, K. Mallick
We study a discrete stochastic model of a molecular motor. This discrete model can be viewed as a \emph{minimal} ratchet model. We extend our previous work on this model, by furthe…
