Numerical Estimation of Limiting Large-Deviation Rate Functions
Peter Werner, Alexander K. Hartmann
For statistics of rare events in systems obeying a large-deviation principle, the rate function is a key quantity. When numerically estimating the rate function one is always restr…

Work Distribution for Unzipping Processes
P. Werner, A. K. Hartmann, S. N. Majumdar
A simple zipper model is introduced, representing in a simplified way, e.g., the folded DNA double helix or hairpin structures in RNA. The double stranded hairpin is connected to a…

Optimized Finite-Time Work Protocols for the Higgs RNA-Model
Peter Werner, Alexander K. Hartmann
The Higgs RNA-Model is studied in regard to finite-time driving protocols with minimal-work requirement. In this paper, RNA sequences which at low temperature exhibits hairpins are…
