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…
A meaningful expansion around detailed balance
Matteo Colangeli, Christian Maes, Bram Wynants
We consider Markovian dynamics modeling open mesoscopic systems which are driven away from detailed balance by a nonconservative force. A systematic expansion is obtained of the st…
The modified Sutherland--Einstein relation for diffusive nonequilibria
Marco Baiesi, Christian Maes, Bram Wynants
There remains a useful relation between diffusion and mobility for a Langevin particle in a periodic medium subject to nonconservative forces. The usual fluctuation-dissipation rel…
Structures of nonequilibrium fluctuations: dissipation and activity
Bram Wynants
We discuss research done in two important areas of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics: fluctuation dissipation relations and dynamical fluctuations. In equilibrium systems the fl…
Nonequilibrium thermodynamics at the microscale: Work relations and the second law
Eliran Boksenbojm, Bram Wynants, Christopher Jarzynski
For macroscopic systems, the second law of thermodynamics establishes an inequality between the amount of work performed on a system in contact with a thermal reservoir, and the ch…
